 True. To clarify: I'm not so worried about old old savegames, but as
a user I would expect that I can seamlessly continue my currently
active game over Debian update. Remember that game of freeciv is not
something typically completed in a single session. (Each real game
(ignoring games run purely for testing something in freeciv) I play
myself takes about 8 months calendar time)
