hi there,

this post only addresses debian sid users (etch _might_ work, too!).

thanks to frits daalmans, who created a gtkradiant package for the debian games team. i created a gtkradiant-nexuiz package, to - hopefully - make radiant nexuiz aware.

but i don't know how to work with gtkradiant, that's why i'd like someone familiar with radiant, to test the gtkradiant and gtkradiant-nexuiz packages! i prebuild binary packages at [1]. please tell me, if these packages work for all steps needed to build a map for nexuiz.

if you've got any radiant installations, make sure they won't interfere with the debian packages - i want them to work out-of-the-box, without any need to edit config files and stuff! ;) to try out the packages download them and run 'dpkg -i gtkradiant_1.5.0-5_$YOURARCH.deb gtkradiant-nexuiz_0.0.0+svn016-1_all.deb ; aptitude | apt-get -f install' ('dpkg -P gtkradiant gtkradiant-nexuiz' purges both packages from your system)

[1] http://wwwcip.informatik.uni-erlangen.d ... i/radiant/

I don't know how use gtkradiant, but I just tried the packages and had a few problems
1) some icons are missing in the toolbar:


2) I always have to kill gtkradiant instead of closing it. When i close it, it leaves a ghost window behind, that can't be closed or killed (only restarting the window manager (e17) helps)

3) When I tried to compile a map, radiant segfaulted. (I symlinked my svn checkout in ~/.nexuiz/data/ and opened one of maps (doesn't seem to matter which map or which build option I use))

oh, that's bad news! :/

1) i've got the missing icons, too. i'll check which icons should be in that place.

2) i cannot reproduce the closing-issue. closing gtkradiant by the window-manager's X-button works as fine, as the file->quit entry in the menu does...

3) compiling the map doesn't work for me, but i can't make gtkradiant segfault. radiant tries to call the wrong q3map2 binary, which doesn't exist.

some questions: did you try this on etch or sid and on i386 or amd64? i only tested the amd64 binary, yet. i'll do some more testing tomorrow

I'm running sid on i386

I can't download those packages.. 404
If they are the same as the ones i downloaded a few days ago i could close it without problems on Linux xxx 2.6.17-2-686 #1 SMP Thu Aug 31 12:53:18 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux using debian sid. But in my version it did not find q3map2 and as KadaverJack does not mention those problems i guess those are new packages..

sorry i reply this late, i'm quite busy at the moment

@esteel: my university's apache was down for while, that's why the downloads didn't work.

i had a closer look at the files for gtkradiant and noticed, that paths and binary names are included in them. they didn't fit to the debianizes gtkradiant. i corrected these things in the gtkradiant-nexuiz package (it'll be named gtkradiant-data-nexuiz in the future). i was able compile a map for nexuiz on my machine with the updated package sources.

Thats good! With those packages Nexuiz should be totaly open for customization. Then we just need 2.1 in debian too

... it's waiting since the day after its release for a dd who uploads it... :(
