Hi,

It seems Debian fixed it in 0.2.030306-12 (according to the bug report I just saw), and as the package has just been uploaded to Lucid, I would say this bug report can be closed.

Can you please check that the version in Lucid actually fix your bug?

Thanks,
Fabrice

Hi,

I've just installed 0.2.030306-12 from the Lucid universe repository on my current Ubuntu 9.10. Install and remove now work without problems.

As an alternative, I used the following work-around to get rid of the old 0.2.030306-11 packages:

$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/ggz/games /etc/ggz/rooms
$ sudo apt-get purge xtux-server
$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/ggz/clients
$ sudo apt-get purge xtux-client xtux-levels xtux-common

Thanks,
Oliver
