Subject: sauerbraten: Sauerbraten maps fail checksum check on some servers. Package: sauerbraten Version: 0.0.20100728.dfsg-1 Severity: important
Sauerbraten is a game that features online play. However, the developer did not include any form of anti-cheating protection. As such, many servers run addon to try to curb cheating. One such measure is run a checksum against the maps the client has, and compare them to the ones on the server. If different, the server will prevent you from playing. In order for the checksum check to work, the .ogz distributed by the Debian project must be identical to ones in the offical archive, found here (http://sourceforge.net/projects/sauerbraten/files/sauerbraten/2010_07_19/sauerbraten_2010_07_28_justice_edition_linux.tar.bz2/download). This bug has already been reported to Ubuntu, but has not made it's way upstream to Debian, yet. See below: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sauerbraten-data/+bug/654264 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Sauerbraten from the contrib repository. 2. Connect to one of the servers with players on it. 3. Attempt to exit specator mode, and note any messages give by the server. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages sauerbraten depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1 7.7.1-4 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libsdl-image1.2 1.2.10-2+b2 image loading library for Simple D ii libsdl-mixer1.2 1.2.8-6.3 mixer library for Simple DirectMed ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.14-6.1 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii sauerbraten-data 0.0.20100728-1 Game content for the Sauerbraten g ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages sauerbraten recommends: ii sauerbraten-wake6 1.0-1 Small but dodgy deathmatch/instagi sauerbraten suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
