Public bug reported:
Reproducible: 100%
Steps: Install torcs from the gutsy repositories and launch it.
Configure any kind or race or practice
The only robots available are cylos, damned, inferno, inferno2, lliaw, tanhoj
and tita.
Upstream version 1.3.0 also has robots berniw, berniw two, bt and
olethros. This is important since these robots are actually the quickest
to drive against (with one exception). Although I have gutsy x86
installed, a look at the files at packages.ubuntu.com reveals that the
only driver libraries in the AMD64 and PPC (wasn't this deprecated?)
architectures are:
usr/lib/torcs/drivers/cylos1/cylos1.so
usr/lib/torcs/drivers/damned/damned.so
usr/lib/torcs/drivers/human/human.so
usr/lib/torcs/drivers/inferno/inferno.so
usr/lib/torcs/drivers/inferno2/inferno2.so
usr/lib/torcs/drivers/lliaw/lliaw.so
usr/lib/torcs/drivers/tanhoj/tanhoj.so
usr/lib/torcs/drivers/tita/tita.so
I understand that some cars and the respective drivers are not avaliable
because the car models are non-free, such as the rally cars. However,
the berniw and olethros robots are GPL v2 or later and thus fully
redistributable.
