Title:
Have Chess offer to install 3D packages
Status in “gnome-games” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-games
When trying to enable the 3d mode in glchess, a message dialog appears
with the following message:
"Unable to enable 3D mode
You are unable to play in 3D mode due to the following problems:
No Python OpenGL support
No Python GTKGLExt support
Please contact your system administrator to resolve these problems,
until then you will be able to play chess in 2D mode."
The problem: The message only has a general description of the
packages that we need to install.
How it should be: It should specify the exact names of those packages
so that people can go and install them right away.
Even better: It should present us with a dialog asking if we want to
install the packages required by glchess in order to enable the 3d
mode. If the user agrees, those packages should be installed
automatically in his system (similar to the way totem installs codec
packages).
The packages that are needed to use 3d mode are the following:
python-gtkglext1
python-opengl
Using glchess 2.20.0.1 on Ubuntu 7.10 (386)
