Package: pokerth-server Version: 1.1.1-2.2 Severity: important Hi,
I have recently tried to set up a pokerth-server and I ran into a couple of problems. First of all when the server is launched as a normal user with "pokerth_server", a hidden directory ".pokerth" will be created in the user's home directory with an additional subdirectory "log-files". The file server_messages.log in log-files contains the following line: ERR: Avatar directory does not exist After some investigation I found out that the avatar directory can be found in pokerth-data. So pokerth-server should probably depend on pokerth-data. However the server expects that the binary is launched from the same directory that contains the data directory which are the same files one can find under /usr/share/games/pokerth. The avatar directory can only be found successfully when I create two symlinks data -> /usr/share/games/pokerth pokerth_server -> /usr/games/pokerth_server and then launch the game with the complete path to the symlinked binary. I know that this information is available in /usr/share/doc/pokerth-server/server_setup_howto.txt.gz but I feel that Debian should provide a more convenient way to launch the pokerth server. Perhaps a wrapper script and the installation of the server binary to /usr/lib/pokerth/pokerth_server might be enough and then just create a symlink called data in /usr/lib/pokerth that points to /usr/share/games/pokerth. Anyway the current setup is half-broken, half inconvenient.
