Bug#784166: widelands: Game crashes on song change

[Bernhard Übelacker]

Hello Alex,
just hearing that this game exists I tried to reproduce it.

I installed widelands 1:18-3+b1 from jessie and started it and could not 
get it to crash on serveral song changes.

But as your report suggests you are running Squeeze with some packages 
from Jessie?

If this situation is supported by Debian is up to the maintainers.

To get more information out of such a crash one could have a look at 
https://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace points 1 and 3.

But for widelands to run with these old package version it needs to be 
built against these old versions what I doubt to happen in Jessie.
Therefore 2 further things could happen:
- build it in squeeze-backports and/or
- build the package in Jessie with a minimum version dependency
    (then apt would try to install also newer versions of the
     dependencies, even when installed in "oldoldstable".)


Kind regards,
Bernhard


For the record I compared the installed version widelands depends on:
