Bug Description

Binary package hint: rott

The shareware data files download gives an error, after the integrity check.
This happens because the ftp link to the shareware zip is wrong in the post-installation script and thus the package configuration fails and leaves the package in a broken state.

To reproduce:
Install the rott package and choose 'Yes' when asked to install the shareware data files.

This can be fixed by changing the ftp link like described in comment #1.

This bug has been fixed in debian/unstable and testing too. So the package should be synced for lucid.

The package definition should be fixed, the old url to shareware levels was in:

     ftp://ftp.3drealms.com/pub/share/1rott13.zip

And now they moved to / ftp, the new url to shareware levels is:

    ftp://ftp.3drealms.com/share/1rott13.zip

ACK from motu-sru for the above debdiff to karmic-proposed, assuming that archive-managers want to copy it from proposed->lucid.

P.S. Philip, don't forget to forward this bugfix upstream to Debian, if they're not aware already.

Debian has the bug fixed already; will be propagated to Lucid by sync.

Accepted into karmic-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!
