I can't find it now though. Busy indexing nil values Top Quote

The bug is at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=928325 . If I understand Debian's release and packaging processes well, this is what needs to happen: Build 20 needs to be packaged; after Buster has been released, this package can move to the testing repository (what will become Bullseye (11)); if that works, the package can be backported to Buster; a 'sloppy-backport' can possibly be provided for Stretch (9).

I'm wondering if build 20 has already been compiled by someone for deb Runs fine, on both Stretch and Buster. stdh wrote: if that works, the package can be backported to Buster; Yes, that is the correct way. It would not be overly difficult to build a x86-64 .deb package for buster and self-host that at web page. The correct way happens when it happens, a self-build package could be online tomorrow. And after that, one could of course self-build for stretch, too. And why not do i386, ARM32, ARM64 etc (I guess this is a long list). I am not suggesting this, but if lack of an easy install path is a problem for the tournament or so, there are doors that could be opened. Top Quote

One can also download random binaries from the internet, and hope that they work right and contain no malware. Top Quote
