Adjusting aur oolite packages to post 1.92 changes
Posted: Tue Mar 31, 2026 1:15 pm
Since master now has the changes from 1.92.maintenance branch I'm looking at adjusting my oolite-git package to the changes in 1.93 .
The namechange to installers/FreeDesktop/space.oolite.Oolite.desktop and the new high-res icon has been done.
I have noticed a new executable splash-launcher that requires SDL2 that is called from the run_oolite.sh script.
It looks like this was added in https://github.com/OoliteProject/oolite/pull/559
Does anyone know why this wasn't integrated in the main oolite executable ?
Added
ShellScripts/Linux/GNUstep.conf.template was added with the same PR .
That file looks like an edited copy of the GNUstep.conf file that comes with GNUstep tools-make ?
If that's corrrect, why isn't the original file used instead ?
That would preserve copyright & license and make clear where it comes from .
