Package: bzflag Version: 2.0.0.20050118 Followup-For: Bug #288684 I am guessing the original poster of this bug meant that the process remains running after the game has quit, as that is the behaviour I have observed. We have two avid bzflag players in my family, and this is getting to be a real pain to deal with. I have queried the players as to how they quit the game, and it seems they do it in the usual way (as opposed to ctrl-alt-backspace to kill the X session, or some other abnormal exit). Because bzflag consumes large amounts of memory, and some CPU even though it is dead, I need to train my users to look for bzflag and kill it after their game is done.
Workaround: If a fix isn't forthcoming, I may have to end up running it in a wrapper, such as: #!/bin/sh /usr/games/bzflag "$@" killall bzflag -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages bzflag depends on: ii libadns1 1.0-8.2 Asynchronous-capable DNS client li ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcurl3 7.12.3-2 Multi-protocol file transfer libra ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-7 GCC support library ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libidn11 0.5.2-3 GNU libidn library, implementation ii libsdl1.2debi 1.2.7+1.2.8cvs20041007-4.1 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System Session Management ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7e-3 SSL shared libraries ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxi6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System Input extension li ii xlibmesa-gl [ 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 Mesa 3D graphics library [XFree86] ii xlibmesa-glu 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 Mesa OpenGL utility library [XFree ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
