gnome-games still suggests gnome-hearts, yet gnome-hearts remains unplayable on debain as-is
However, as noted, gnome-hearts requires gnome-games-common, which no longer exists. Further, gnome-hearts does not have a dependency on gnome-games-common either. It appears that the only gnome-games with cards is the aislerot package: /usr/share/aislerot/cards/ However: # mkdir /usr/share/gnome-games-common/ # ln -s /usr/share/aislerot/cards /usr/share/gnome-games-common/cards $ gnome-hearts does not work. Reviewing the gnome-hearts config file ~/.config/gnome-hearts/gnome-hearts.cfg there is a card_style entry with a svg suffix, yet aislerot now uses gzip compressed cards with a svgz extension. Changing the card_style extension to svgz did not work either. Seems gnome-hearts cannot uncompress first... So trying again: # mkdir /usr/share/gnome-games-common/ # mkdir /usr/share/gnome-games-common/cards/ # cp /usr/share/aislerot/cards/*.svgz /usr/share/gnome-games-common/cards/ # cd /usr/share/gnome-games-common/cards/ # rename 's/\.svgz$/.svg.gz/' *.svgz # gzip -d *.gz $ gnome-hearts works! Note this might not work (haven't tried) if card_style is set to a svg that no longer exists. In that case, you'd have to either change card_style to something that does exist, or try to find a copy of the old svg file and put it in the /usr/share/gnome-games-common/cards/ directory. So, need to do one of: (a) gnome-hearts needs to depend on aislerot and learn to read svgz files, or (b) gnome-hearts ship a copy of the uncompressed aislerot cards, or (c) other...?
