Bug Description

Binary package hint: warsow

Good day!
Warsow fails to load any game type but the dm saying "Game type failed to load". It also says it fails to load the angelwrap module on startup.

Here's some more info on that:

Ubuntu Lucid x86_64 here. 'warsow' and 'warsow-server' affected.

A simple solution for anyone who subsequently encounters this bug would be to obtain the "unified" zip of warsow from the main warsow website. This zip contains a "libs" directory within which is a compiled copy of angelwrap "libs/angelwrap_x86_64.so". Copying this to "/usr/lib/games/warsow/libs" and ensuring the correct file permissions should be sufficient.

Looks like that shared object was somehow missed from the x64 package.

Tested this on 10.04 and 10.10, so marking as confirmed.

Changed in warsow (Ubuntu):

64bit angelwrap Edit (1.0 MiB, application/octet-stream)

Copying over the missing file does fix the gametype errors, but it's a HUGE archive to download, just to get this one file.

I'm closing this bug since warsow has been removed from Debian & Ubuntu since it was unmaintained. See http://bugs.debian.org/648317 for more details.
