Particularly clever eliminations cause garbage to clutter your opponent's screen. Who will survive the longest!? Playable both online and off. --- Notice that there has been some legal discussion about this package on f-e-l because it uses game mechanics from a well known game, which in itself is not a problem. The problem is however that the docs mention this well known and trademarked game as the inspiration for the game mechanics. Since this name is trademarked I have added a patch to the srpm removing the trademarked name from the binary packages. I haven't made a special source tarbal without this name because Core cotnains a package (gnome-games) with similar issues and also handles this in the spec file and not with a modified tarbal, and what is good enough for Core should be good enough for FE (when talking about legal issues) . I've compared this game with screenshots from the game this is inspired by and except for the game mechanics nothing has been copied, the graphics logo, controls etc all are different. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
