Warzone 2100 already exists at getdeb: http://www.getdeb.net/comment.php?rel_id=322
Would be nice to get it mirrored in the universe repos or something though.
most of those games are .run or .package so there is really no need to create a .deb
it installs just fine.
on the other hand if you put here some games that are only available in "source" or "rpm" ....
Well, I have noticed alot more ubuntu .deb files appears, so sooner or later it won't be a problem. Especially newer project have .deb packages.

would someone fill me in on the process of making a deb file for ubuntu? is it at all possible that we could do it?
How about Urban Terror...would it be possible to have a deb for it.
Linux - The way it was meant to be !
debs are better than run and package files because they are easier to manage and uninstall. I know some games installed from run files come with uninstall scripts but very few that I have seen. debs usually add a game launcher to your menu too to save you some time from doing it. It's nice to be able to see and manage all your software installed from Synaptic. It will never be overwritten if the package manager knows it's there.
i would have voted for this if it was in the list. i saw it featured somewhere and it looked interesting. i just wasted a lot of time trying to compile it. didn't work out for me. i'd post my specific problem but i'm at work and i don't feel like giving it another go any time soon.
I don't understand... why aren't fantastic games like Warzone 2100 already in the repositories? I had no *idea* that we had such polished games available under the GPL.
