Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-hearts
Original bug: Bug #65274
Original description:
"GNOME Hearts crashes on startup in edgy."
gnome-hearts cannot be used on edgy because every time you try it crashes.
Fix was made by Andreas Henriksson:
(from original bug report comments)
"Hearts crashes due to a change in the gnome-games card styles. bonded.png was replaced by bonded.svg and hearts uses bonded.png as the default cardset. When it can't find it, the game crashes.
I'm attaching a quick patch written by Andreas Henriksson on Debian BTS. I'm working on gnome-hearts-0.1.3 which should remove the crashing behaviour alltogether."
I've tested this on edgy and gnome-hearts works fine with this fix.
Other way to fix from upstream author:
"I'm the upstream author who also wrote the 01_gnome_cards_data patch. That patch was made because Debian split gnome-games-
I think upstream author is right, we should just drop that gnome cards patch. I made a new debdiff ~proposed1
and tested it on edgy without segfaults.
This needs three new votes from MOTU SRU team.
I guess you should also s/bonded. png/bonded. svg/ in 01_gnome_ cards_data. patch. Also, you should start your patch name with a number and not the string ubuntu, to make it clear in which order the patches need to be applied.
Other than that, looks fine.
