Title: About Glest Linux port
Post by: martiño on 26 May 2005, 19:15:47

Glest has been ported to Linux by Matze Braun, not by the Glest Team (thanks Matze!) (http://http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~uxsm/glest/).

The Linux port is now integrated in the main project, to play Glest on Linux, download the latest data and source packages from our sourceforge website (http://http://sourceforge.net/projects/glest) and compile the source code. You can also use some of the packages made by other people, there are links to them in this board.

The latest source is always available at the CVS (this is usually more up to date than the latest code package).
 
Glest is also included in SUSE Linux 10.0.

Any questions/sugestions/problems please post in this forum.

I'll try to make a .deb  ;). About getting it into the repository that's more difficult, but I'll look what can be done.

Glest is already officially packaged for the Debian. Glest is not in the current stable (Debian 4.0 'Etch'), but it's included in the Debian Lenny which will be the next Debian release.

Yes, I know.

I might package some community stuff (language packs, Indians faction, etc.), but probably not before some months (school)...

I would be very happy if I would once see my indians in the Debian/Ubuntu repository! Feel free to use it.
I carefully checked that there are no legal issues when I build it! It's all free!(GPL or completly free)  including the music which was distributed under the lowest level of the commons creative licence from an user only known by it's synonym. So I really think I can say it's all ok for the GPL.
