same-gnome missing from games-gnome

Same GNOME has been renamed to "Swell Foop". Both Lights Off and Swell Foop have been determined by the original developers to be experimental. The games are Clutter-based and don't work well in many cases. Those two games are not built by default, and in fact when I tried a few months ago to build them anyway, the games wouldn't even run any more.

I would close this bug, but maybe eventually the developers will get the games working again. I just wouldn't expect it happening soon.

Ok. Thanks. It seems that the Gnome Games page linked to above also needs updating. The game is still called Same-Gnome there..

That should be fixed now. By the way, live.gnome.org is a wiki so in the future you can make improvements as you see them.

Same-Gnome used to be in the repositories. If the new version, now called Swell Foop, is too experimental maybe there is a way to bring the old packages forward?

There is an upstream bug to port Swell Foop to Vala which should solve most of these issues:

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-games - 1:3.3.4.1-0ubuntu1
