cor-debian-packages

About

The current Champions of Regnum client is built against an old version of libncursesw and libtinfo that has been deprecated almost 10 years ago by Debian and is doomed to disappear from all Debian-based distributions released after 2024. As well, libgtk2 is far from being on its way out yet it's also deprecated, but it's totally possible to have an usable system without it.

This package installs potentially missing dependencies and create symbolic links to old libraries' .so files.

Install

Grab the .deb corresponding to your architecture at this link and install through:

sudo apt install ./cor-debian-packages_6_$(arch).deb

That's it.

Further updates (dev)

  1. Install the equivs package
  2. Edit the 2 control files to your convenance. Don't forget to increment the version number!
  3. Run the update script that will build the packages for you.
  4. sudo apt install ./cor-debian-packages_7_$(arch).deb
  5. Before pushing to git, don't forget to change the README with the proper versions numbers.
