We already have said in release announcement what you should do in such case:

Better write this in finnish also as swedish, french and english does not seem to be enough

Code: Select all

Kaiken varalta tiedostot ovat haettavissa myos osoitteesta http://files.wesnoth.org - yritä kuitenkin ensin hakea tiedostot SourceForgesta jotta saamme säästettyä verkkoliikenteessä.

I'm here to inform the Italian player that the Italian version contains some major errors because i had accidentally copied some prefix (like TitleScreen Button^button name) and so the text does not fit so good on the buttons... it is my fault, i know.
I just finished to make the corrections to the two files that contains that kind of stuff, but i suppose that they will be unavailable since the next release...
I'm sorry.

Shouldn't this actually read "Elen síla lúmenn' omentielvo"? ;-)

Ah - dual - I thought of it a minute after I posted, but then I looked in the wrong place...

My fault of course :-)

Actually several versions of LOTR have a printer's error... both sides have The Book to back up their claims. (Mine says omentielvo.) There's one edition where it says omentilmo even. Bad.[/b]

Well, I think the question is, whether it is Frodo alone, who is greeted, or him and his whole company (Sam, Pippin, Merry).

Case one would use dual plural (ending -vo -> that's also what my edition says), case two would use inclusive plural (ending -mo -> of course the ending Miyo should use as he is addressing not only one).

Well - that's as far as I get it - I'm not really any good on Quenya...

Yes, we know there is ebuild of wesnoth - how it lives is beyond our control. Officially we only release sourcecode, all binaries/packages/etc are contributions and have lives of their own.

Then you should ask 'mr_bones' to update the ebuild

Just for information's sake, the ebuild for Wesnoth was updated to version 0.8.4 on the day of the release here. In fact, I saw the ebuild on packages.gentoo.org before I found that it was released (I had to force-refresh to get the release news item on the front page).

Apparently there was a problem with 0.8.3 that made them not include that version in portage. Something to do with not building with gnome/kde? Anyways, that doesn't matter now I guess.

Mandrake 10 Backport

Mandrake 10 Backport

Hi,

The following links will take you to a Mandrake 10 backport of the cooker/contrib SRPMS. All of the real credit goes to 'Misc' who actually packages the Mandrake RPM.

Links Below:

http://www.neuro-tech.net/~jwp/trow/wes ... k.i586.rpm
http://www.neuro-tech.net/~jwp/trow/wes ... k.i586.rpm

As a footnote, this will probably be the last backport I do for Mandrake 10. MDK 10.1 is in RC, and I'll be switching soon. . .

Have Fun!

My version of the Mac OSX 0.8.4 is now (=finally) up on the sourceforge downloads page.

I have also uploaded the Wesnoth for Mac OS X package to http://files.wesnoth.org as it takes some time for SourceForge mirrors to get in sync.
