-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi all,
in the short term, I'd like to replace the prboom-plus Doom engine in Debian with its more actively developed fork dsda-doom. While developement of the former has mostly stagnated (granted, it had its 2.6.1um release earlier this month), the latter pioneered with new features like the introduction of the MBF21 modding standard and DSDehacked (aka unlimited everything). Apart from that, it also keeps demo compatibility as its highest goal, has added support for Heretic and Hexen and has the vibrant DSDA speedrunning community behind it. The downside is that dsda-coom introduced a new versioning scheme which is currently at v0.21.0, whereas prboom-plus is already at 2.6.1um. To provide for an easy upgrade path for prboom-plus users, I'd like to introduce the dsda-doom package with an epoch. Since prboom-plus already has epoch 2, this would necessarily be epoch 3. I hope that everyone agrees here. The prboom-plus package is currently the default Doom engine in Debian and is pulled in by some game data packages such as freedoom or the ones generated by g-d-p. However, none of these dependencies/recommendations are versioned, so I don't see any chance for breakage here. Cheers, - Fabian -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEIsF2SKlSa4TfGRyWy+qOlwzNWd8FAmEjYfgACgkQy+qOlwzN Wd+WVw//T7/UGJP+JErAjacisY3aoSth0Bgy8WezkIvdZ4e3Jr5wZgbUmbJCmcax zJQRqMxxLtSBNUYXYWe9bH9gFbOxkO4pR4Tf4ZyNXRc3ou0IOVfDu/6dFhlwKUqZ HQWqXmTokOBAQN2/EElBT0A55vEuTbhThW70P2sM4QsZUe8Q2AfwcmB3+h7Hx5eY GlhpLjeVXw3AoRaDmtR5K8MI6Q46iKdNRHTVudqu7ijwiAVx8VOsSOXAuMLk1eoP xZosMMxLTH2itlD4uagUNt5oqV1d5JMOMyAfabDijUIl3a7s35oYjeIdHWO4H9zA EW1O5SmtyDHLmdwhOsIzPg2ODSeJFm7KQciw9P68LhYSiToUUPg1DvepYbwSzprQ ijeluy9l/ddTwgVLqTmm30GoqGhjQiPH6UqjNvW0ICVd1iYzyKRgSe1l4wzmJVGW p9Nt/B5ZlQnfIWqm0fHTgfpVtJ/xwAZ8Fo3gdSBD5rHTIs6I3RfoqzrFBDtH/jae GAK+ipFK7gS0PchdjXTjfWxnnw0TU1xOIbToRVZ1X+n+45BNatzQEg6JA2TECKbg Xmu+iC4pFKeBQXiBkQASN0g38kD0//yIrJHcH2EmTbmS6+lX8OjlwdZf4lsiOQ30 LdtrmZDNDKr6xktA4fQvCw2rUP7Kd8NyrNWk8dJjfLucMlXGkPw= =0zPH -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
