@Karl: I tried your 2.2.7 PPA freeciv-client-gtk package on my Natty
live CD, and when launched from the start-menu-equivalent it correctly
disabled the global menu, and the diplomacy UI was accessible. When
launched as "freeciv" or "freeciv-gtk2" from the command-line, global
menu was used; it looks like you used the .desktop fix, so that's
expected. It otherwise seemed to work as far as I tested it (which
wasn't very far).

However, it looks like the .desktop Unity workaround will be superseded
by Michael's work.

@Michael: thanks for dealing with this and for pushing through an SRU. I
can try out the Natty package on my Natty CD when it's available.

Can you review my patch using "ubuntu-local", when it's available
(hopefully soon)? I want to be sure I'm using it as intended.

As regards an upstream release, I did wonder whether it should be an
Ubuntu-specific patch, but on reflection, it's small and harmless
enough, so we may as well bung it in upstream (with copious comments);
that way people rolling their own Freeciv on Ubuntu will benefit.

However, it seems quite likely that we won't release another 2.2.x in
the Oneiric timeframe, and any patch almost certainly won't go in 2.3.0
either (unless something else goes wrong with the RC). So it'll probably
be necessary for you to apply the patch in your packaging. I'll make
sure that clean patches against both 2.2.7 and 2.3.0 are available, so
that you have the choice of which version to put in Oneiric. The patch
can be removed for Predictable Penguin :)
