startool fails at finding a file on french CD

[Mathieu Comandon]

After extracting many files, startool complains about a missing file and stops:

...
extracted: sound\protoss\arbiter\pabyes01.wav (2215, 66570 bytes)
extracted: sound\protoss\arbiter\pabyes02.wav (2216, 68756 bytes)
Not found: sound\protoss\arbiter\pabyes03.wav

(I have a french CD that comes bundled with Broodwar)

Maybe it would be better if startool did not stop after encountering missing files and instead showed the user a report of missing files on exit.

Hi, startool does not support Broodwar CD, only original without expansion is supported.

The Broodwar expansion is on another CD, the one I used is the original game. I assume this error is due to the fact that this is the french version of the game.

I should try to remove the problematic file from startool's list and recompile it and see if this works better.

Also, I just realised that the code was also on Launchpad, I only tried the code from svn and startool crashed before extracting anything. (the bug I reported was from the PPA version)

On launchpad is new version (2.2.5.5) and in bzr is prepaired 2.2.6 (with support for x86_64). Try to use version from bzr trunk.

Check if problem is still in new version 2.2.6

Tested on 2.2.6-1ubuntu1~oneiric, the problem still remains

Not found: sound\protoss\arbiter\pabyes03.wav
dpkg: error processing stargus (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 255

Removing all references to that file fixes the problem. As a workaround, I've used the asset pabyes02.wav twice

[Pali (pali)]

@Mathieu Comandon, only this one file "sound\\protoss\\arbiter\\pabyes03.wav" is missing on your CD?

[Mathieu Comandon (strycore)]

yes, removing all references to this file solved the problem

[Pali (pali)]

Ok, thanks for info!

It should be fixed by this commit https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stratagus/stargus/trunk/revision/310
Editing mpqlist.txt is not needed because it contains only hints for filenames.
