Package: flightgear-data-base Version: 1:2017.2.1+dfsg-2 Severity: important
Dear Maintainer, file /usr/share/games/flightgear/Timezone is a soft link to tzdata's files, with a relative path "../../zoneinfo", which works OK in a standard installation. Due to this game's disk requirement's I've decided to move /usr/share/games folder to a separate partition, and soft-link it to it's new home. This resulted in fgfs failing to start with an erorr: "unable to find Timezone/zone.tab", due to the previous soft-link now incorrectly pointing to a non-existing relative path. Changing that soft-link to point to the absolute path "/usr/share/zoneinfo" solves the problem and the game can start normally again. I suggest to change that link in the installation package since, given the disk requirements of this game, many users would be tempted to proceed as I did in order to save a significant amount of free space in root partition.
