Babala future? - 2008/01/26 00:15
Hello,
I would like to ask about Babala, whether do you plan to bring it back to life?
If no then I would like to ask you to consider opening the sources and letting the community to continue the project (I bet there is interest).
If yes then ... (speaking about linux version)
- there is a problem with the installer script; on all the systems I've access to ATM, tail command needs syntax "tail -n +13" not just "tail +13"
my primary testing machine is x86_64:
- the localisation does not get loaded ... strace shows various locale files being opened but babala.mo is not among them
- babala runs with the 32bit libraries, but it crashes after completing the first level, or any time earlier
native 64bit build would be good, then we can chase the errors
running on 32bit machine, backtrace for the crash after the end of the first level:
#0 0x4e59d321 in fwrite () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1 0x08054ce6 in ulozScoreL ()
#2 0x0804df82 in ukonciLevel ()
#3 0x0805187b in strela ()
#4 0x08051dc1 in on_key_event ()
#5 0x4b69d7ae in _gtk_marshal_BOOLEAN__BOXED (closure=, return_value=,
n_param_values=, param_values=, invocation_hint=Could not find the frame base for "_gtk_marshal_BOOLEAN__BOXED".
) at gtkmarshalers.c:84
#6 0x4605d433 in g_closure_invoke () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0
#7 0xbfd74314 in ?? ()
#8 0x00000000 in ?? ()
- same as Ondra Surư, I can offer packaging ... I've already hacked an ebuild for Gentoo (but I see no point in putting it anywhere since it crashes)
- if you are willing to reconsider the licensing, in order to get it into Fedora, it would be nice to use one of those: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#GoodSoftwareLicenses

oh well, now I see the thing that triggers the crash:
open("../share/babala/scoreL1", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0666) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
... quite optimistic assumption that the software run by any user can write anywhere on the filesystem, so that we need not to check whether it is possible (when we've chosen to do such a nasty thing)

I know about problem with writing to share score file on RPM version. I planed resolve this problem, but I forgot it. My english is bad. You wrote, that you read Ondra Surư post. Maybe you speak czech. Please, write me mail to my
mailbox.(p.richter@babala.org) and I will change licence and I will modify software as you will need for packaging.
I had one offer for better grafics to babala and I planed make next set of level before some time, but I work to other project this time. But I can make some modification this time. (I must except score posting from open version,...)
