Re: Intent to package nightfall
I have tried to package it however I have had some GTK problems, it
seems that when I run 'configure' I can compile nightfall but not with
'configure -prefix=/usr' (which is the default in debian/rules). This was
last friday and I did not have time to check it further.
You can retrieve a copy (source modified) at:
http://www.dat.etsit.upm.es/~jfs/debian/DO/nightfall
If you want to take it and see if you can make if work feel free to
do so.. I found this at www.seoul.org and given the current thread on
educational software for Linux I thought it would be interesting to include
it :)

Javi
