È uscita la nuova Wesnoth 1.6.4, che tappa un paio di bug e aggiunge delle traduzioni.
Come al solito vi ricordo che per chi ha il repo attivato basta aggiornare il sistema, mentre per gli altri è possibile il download a questa pagina.
Buon gioco!

I wonder what’s the need for the fork? What’s behind it, I don’t really get what is written in the changelog.Debian, it seems to be more or less a copy of the upstream announcement/changelog and therefore makes me pretty curious about what’s the reasoning for it? If there is something wrong with the Debian packages from the pool pretty please let me know, I would love to fix that.
I think that there are major differences, except that this repository can also be used on ubuntu.
The big difference is rather unstable version that can be installed together with the stable without the interference file.
About that the repository can also be used on ubuntu: ubuntu also have their own official packages.
If the important difference is that the development branch can be installed side-by-side with the stable wesnoth branch I wonder why I haven’t received anything along that lines in the Debian bug tracking system – it is not like I would object to applying the needed changes to the official Debian packages.
Furthermore, your packages are b0rked. You didn’t install data/lua into the package which just recently resulted in strange error reports that I just now was able to pin down to your package. Your fork actually doesn’t solve any issues, it raises further problems. I am sorry but I can just discourage people to not use your packages.
First of all thank you for the comments (I consider them constructive).
In Ubuntu the package is stable at this time which should be 1.6.4, but it is still the 1.6a (unless using package karmic).
The package Wesnoth-unstable is not to trouble with the files in the stable version (which I consider more important to play). I do not understand why should end up in the Debian Bug Tracking System (if I explain better what you wanted to say I would be happy to answer).
I am venting a little … XD I’m the only one who is doing this thing and I would not mind having someone to help me (especially my little computing capacity in the field of computing).
If you could give me a hand to better understand what matters are to be placed to assure you that I would do it willingly.
I look forward to a reply. XD
The packages in ubuntu are kept in sync my MOTUs (Members Of The Universe) on best effort – you should try to contact them about the way things work there. They also offer a backport service which you (or someone else interested) could pick to use to offer the 1.6 releases through that, too.
The reason of why your approach to offer wesnoth-unstable should end in the Debian Bug Tracking System is that it would offer the benefit of that approach to all the users, especially those using the official packages too, and not have it limited to your own small group of people that noticed your site.
Additionally it would avoid the problems you currently have with your broken 1.7 packages. You don’t install data/lua into the wesnoth-data package which produces problems for users, this directory is installed into the official Debian package right from the start of the 1.7 release. Please don’t divert so much from the official packages, you are not doing a service to your users.
About helping you – that would be the wrong way round. You are doing something _outside_ the official facilities. If you have some problems with the official offered packages, try to get them fixed there, not start with your own fork. The benefit should be clear: You would have to do only little (and also rather just produce less bugs for your users) and the benefit is there for all.
What I have said is an attractive prospect!
I talked and we shall announce the results immediately. I hope to do everything quickly.
… furthermore I noticed that you are also missing some tools that were added by upstream in some recent 1.7 releases, like the hexometer and wmlxgettext – again something you could have avoided if you wouldn’t have forked but followed what I do with the official packages.
