Package: atanks
Version: 5.5-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
I noticed that when changing game options the game itself has a crash; I tried to see what
happens launching it in the shell and it's a segfault:

$ atanks 
Atomic Tanks Version 5.5 (-h for help)
Authors:        Tom Hudson (rewrite, additions, improvements)
                Stevante Software (original design)
                Kota543 Software (fixes and updates)
                Jesse Smith (additions, fixes and updates)
                Sven Eden (ai rewrite, additions, fixes and updates)

Shutting down Allegro due to signal #11
Errore di segmentazione

Since I have custom configuration file I tried to use the flag --noconfig to override some settings 
that could be wrong (i changed, then version changed) but not useful.

   * What led up to the situation?
Open the game, try to change options.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
Tried to use --noconfig option but it's not likely a broken configuration file; tried to use --nobackground
and --nothread too but nothing changed.

I opened this bug as important since it affects all options, consider if it's really important because one can
still change options by opening with a text editor the file ~/.atanks/atanks-config.txt but this is a little
more tricky.
