I wanted to add some other notes to this thread since there was at least some hint of back porting. First is that there was some discussion a while back that Wesnoth should try to put out major stable releases about every 6 months instead of about every year. This means the save game versus network play issues are going to be coming up more often. Another thing to note is that the wesnoth build system has a way to override the preferences directory (that includes saved games) so that you can reasonably have multiple versions installed at the same time that don't conflict. I do this since I do a lot of build testing with typically the last stable release tree and trunk. (Though recently I have separate installs for testing automake builds and scons builds separately.) While I don't know if the current maintainer would want to do this, but it certainly be possible for the maintainer to use versioned install locations and preference locations, so that players could finish up their existing games with the older version while still being able to play multiplayer games with the current version. _______________________________________________ Fedora-games-list mailing list Fedora-games-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-games-list
