that might be a little bit hard to do. because we are using pkg-config's pc files, and there almost everything gtk related is included.

Unfortunately I haven't identified the root cause of this issue yet. Normally this could be avoided by excluding the unneeded gtk libraries in the final linker stage and I usually add "Wl,--as-needed to LDFLAGS to compensate for that. In this case it doesn't work.

Besides: I've built the game with SDL2 for the first time and it works flawlessy so far.

Hi all,

Registered to give some info on my run with these packages.

Before going into details I'm on amd64 / SID.

So,
Install goes as expected I had most prerequisites, the ones which I did not were libxml1 (for ufoai-uforadiant-data) and  libgtkglext1 (for ufoai-uforadiant). Sadly there is no package named libxml1 in the official debian repo, thus I wasn't able to get the mapeditor working.
Also after installing the game server component starts up, and listens on 0.0.0.0:27910 TCP, which is in my opinion rather unwanted. As such I think it would make a lot more sense to either start the server on a need to basis or have it only listen on localhost.

Also when trying to start the game it dies with the following error:
/usr/lib/ufoai/ufo: error while loading shared libraries: libmxml.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hi!

Thanks for your feedback.

I believe you are looking for libmxml1
http://packages.debian.org/sid/libmxml1

The ufoai-server package contains the dedicated server. You don't need this package if you want to start a listen server, the ufoai package is then sufficient. The dedicated server is intended for server admins who want to setup a headless server with as little dependencies as possible. Normally you can set a cvar value for net_ip (at least for openarena) in your server.cfg and make the server listen only on one interface instead of all.

So in short: If you only want to play the game and host some games in your local network, the ufoai package and its dependencies is all that you need.

Mattn:
the mapeditor needs libxml2
