retitle 419572 Does not save the score - binary should be setgid games tags 419572 patch thanks
Actually the issue affects any Debian architecture, not just amd64 so I'm retitling the bug. The fix is actually quite straightforward, just make the program (and directory) setgid so that score files can be written properly. Attachd is a patch that does this by modifying powermanga's postinst. Local changes are preserved through the use of dpkg-statoverride. Regards Javier
