zyli Posted September 27 Report Share Posted September 27 In Debian Trixie 0ad was removed from the repository because it supposedly does not work correctly with python 3.12. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1064726 https://trac.wildfiregames.com/ticket/6895 Therefore: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/0ad ("[2024-04-13] 0ad REMOVED from testing (Debian testing watch)" ) Python is needed to build packages, it is not needed for installation. For example, in Linux Arch, python 3.12 is in the system, but python 3.11.9 is downloaded for compilation. You can look at line 41: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/0ad/-/blob/main/.SRCINFO?ref_type=heads On Debian Trixie you can install 0ad by taking packages from sid. You don't need to switch to the sid repository. Three files (packages) are enough: 0ad_0.0.26-5_amd64.deb 0ad-data_0.0.26-1_all.deb 0ad-data-common_0.0.26-1_all.deb Respectively from: https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/0ad/download https://packages.debian.org/sid/all/0ad-data/download https://packages.debian.org/sid/all/0ad-data-common/download Of course, we install with the command: # dpkg -i file1 file2 file3 By the way. You have strange additional repositories. Maybe it would be worth reading what FrankenDebian is: https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian Of course, using the 0ad installation with sid according to the above recipe, we reduce FrankenDebian to a minimum.

andy5995 Posted September 29 Report Share Posted September 29 @BaelishIf you're on an amd64 system and don't mind using an AppImage, you can download the 0ad AppImage and just run that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
