Bug#609084: sauerbraten: Sauerbraten maps fail checksum check on some servers.

[James Wagner]

Subject: sauerbraten: Sauerbraten maps fail checksum check on some servers.
Package: sauerbraten
Version: 0.0.20100728.dfsg-1
Severity: important

Sauerbraten is a game that features online play. However, the developer
did not include any form of anti-cheating protection. As such, many
servers run addon to try to curb cheating. One such measure is run a
checksum against the maps the client has, and compare them to the ones
on the server. If different, the server will prevent you from playing.
In order for the checksum check to work,
the .ogz distributed by the Debian project must be identical to ones in
the offical archive, found here
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/sauerbraten/files/sauerbraten/2010_07_19/sauerbraten_2010_07_28_justice_edition_linux.tar.bz2/download).

This bug has already been reported to Ubuntu, but has not made it's way
upstream to Debian, yet. See below:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sauerbraten-data/+bug/654264

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Sauerbraten from the contrib repository.
2. Connect to one of the servers with players on it.
3. Attempt to exit specator mode, and note any messages give by the server.
