blast007anyone here run Ubuntu 22.04 and could check if the packaged BZFlag client is still unresponsive after being launched?  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bzflag/+bug/198375114:14

JeffM[m]The package in the store in ubuntu?16:12
JeffM[m]cus it does not run. at all16:15
blast007I don't know if that pulls the snap or the .deb package.  I'm specifically referring to the one installed via apt/apt-get/aptitude.16:27
JeffM[m]let me see what I can see16:27
blast007the snap would be 2.4.26 and the .deb version would be 2.4.2216:29
JeffM[m]the deb package does lock up16:32
JeffM[m]and yeah it reported 2.4.2216:32
JeffM[m]it started then hung16:33
blast007is that what "it does not run" was referring to?  or did the one from the store not even launch at all?16:49
JeffM[m]no, the one from the store does not even launch17:06
JeffM[m]the deb does launch, shows graphics, then locks up17:07
JeffM[m]the store does not even open a window17:07
JeffM[m]and I have verified that other GL things work on the system17:07
blast007guess I'll have to toss Ubuntu on a system this weekend and see why the other one doesn't even launch17:12
blast007if the store one is the snap, that's something we maintain and can update/publish17:13
*** yuitimothy is now away: I've done some soul-searching and I still can't find it.17:14
JeffM[m]yes, the store seems to be a "snapd store"17:15
JeffM[m]there were 2 bzflags in the store, I used the one by Allejo17:16
blast007k, thanks for checking17:18
JeffM[m]I've got the day off ;)17:23
JeffM[m]was about to hit my vacation cap, so long weekend time17:23
JeffM[m]though sometimes my work brain won't turn off, had a moment of clarity in the middle of the night about a better way to structure some work code17:24
TimRikerI'm running 22.04. 2.4.22 launches, but seems to take no keyboard input.18:23
TimRikerit is not using a snap instance.18:23
blast007TimRiker: yeah, SDL 2.0.20, which is in Ubuntu 22.04, has a regression that broke our input loop.  BZFlag 2.4.24 added a workaround, but Ubuntu still has the 2.4.22 version (since, like Debian, they don't generally push new versions in a release), though I also provided a minimal patch to fix the problem in BZFlag.18:27
blast007s/input loop/event loop/18:27
blast007been 6 months now since that was reported though18:28
TimRikerhas anyone tried pushing to ubuntu? Does this affect a Debian release someplace too? Probably easier to push to there.18:28
blast007Debian is fine.  It was a problem in Debian Testing for a bit, but that was resolved once either SDL or BZ was updated18:29
blast007(Debian 11 doesn't have the version of SDL that was broken)18:29
