Bug#1081287: funnyboat: Uses current Python venv instead of system Python

[Michael Young]

Package: funnyboat
Version: 1.5-11
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: mctorpey at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

I use Python virtual environments on my computer, and I was in a terminal with a Python virtual env activated, when I decided to have a game of funnyboat.  I entered the 'funnyboat' command, and this caused an error, with the following traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/games/funnyboat/main.py", line 3, in <module>
    import pygame
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pygame'

Indeed, pygame is not installed in my virtual environment.  However, shouldn't the bash script at /usr/games/funnyboat somehow make sure it calls the system Python instead of whatever's activated?  I notice it calls "exec python3" rather than something more specific.

All the best,
Michael
