Package: doomsday
Version: 1.15.8-5+b1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,
Doomsday released upstream version 2.0.3.

Please find in [1] a first try to upgrade this package.

Changelog so far:
  * New upstream release.

  * Switch to Qt 5. (Closes: #874870)
  * Drop patches perms, packs, manpages, no-libexample
    and Node-parent-NULL-pointer.
  * Refresh remaining patches and add no-versioned-exececutables.
  * Use icon and shortcut from upstream.
  * Remove the debian menu entry.
  * Bump standards version from 3.9.8 to 4.1.2.
  * Change Architecture of binary packages to any.
  * Add avoid-ipv6-at-ipv4-loopback.patch.
  * Add package doomsday-tools. (Closes: #864250)


Open points to resolve as far as I recognised them:

- My draft used the origin upstream tar.gz.
  But at least in the current version some files seem to be removed
  from that e.g. directory distrib and such
  (because of licensing? debian/copyright)

- The shared objects are put to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/doomsday
  Would be /usr/lib/games/doomsday better?

- Is one doomsday-tools package good or should it be split into
  separate packages?

- I added a patch because at my system IPv6 is disabled
  and therefore the lo interface has no IPv6 address.
  Therefore I have troubles to connect to local dedicated servers.
  Is this considered a misconfiguration of my system or should this work?

Build shows these warnings:
- warning: can't extract name and version from library
        name 'libdeng_shell.so'
- warning: debian/doomsday-common/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
        doomsday/libdeng_gui.so.2.0.3 contains an unresolvable reference
        to symbol glXGetProcAddress: it's probably a plugin

Kind regards,
Bernhard
