crash looking for map in wrong directory

[M Hickford]

Great game guys. I'm playing version 0.4 in hardy.

On trying to play either of the last two maps in the last cup of the first campaign, d-niehoff_experience . etracer exits with the following error.

*** etracer error: Couldn't chdir to /usr/share/games/etracer/courses/events/a-tux_racer/challenge_one (No such file or directory)

(The maps are challenge one and wild mountains )

I copied the directories for the maps from /usr/share/games/etracer/courses/events/d-niehoff_experience to the above location, and this fixed the problem.

Hello,
this is already fixed in SVN - please try building ETRacer from source or wait for the next release (probably in this month).

[Linard Verstraete (linardv)]

System version: Xubuntu 8.10 - Intrepid
Package version: extremetuxracer: 0.4-1ubuntu1

This fix still hasn't made it to extremetuxracer (Ubuntu).

@Verstraete: same as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/extremetuxracer/+bug/239123/comments/9 ;)
