Comment 2 for bug 277748

This actually is an issue in the nexuiz-data package, not nexuiz. Furthermore, I just yesterday uploaded a version to Debian unstable (2.4.2-2) which includes a patch to disable the version check. It is pretty small (just some #if 0 and #endif in one file), so you might want to use that patch for all releases of nexuiz-data in Ubuntu.

Please also notice that you might want to also adopt the small change I did to debian/rules about moving the patch-stamp dependency from the build target to the build-stamp target to ensure that patching is done *before* building.

Find attached the patch that I pushed into Debian stable which is a minimized version of the patch that I pushed into unstable where I also did some other small changes, but I guess you get the idea and can figure out which way you want to go.
