Changes:
Nearly exactly one year after the first ever release of Frozen-Bubble, the
team strikes back with a new release providing major features enhancements:
* a level editor has been added
* the 1p-game now comes with 100 levels (instead of 50)
* all the graphics have been re-designed
* the 2p-game features the chain-reaction mechanism (as an option)
* manual pages (from Debian)
You steer a futuristic bike, called lightcycle. Combat takes place in
a rectangular arena. Your bike leaves a trail behind, which is like
a wall. The goal is to force the other players to drive into a wall.
The winner is the last player alive.
As the name suggests, the game is inspired by the movie Tron. Or more
exactly, by all the games that where inspired by the movie Tron.

Changes:
xmahjongg version 3 is a complete rewrite by Eddie Kohler <eddietwo at lcs dot
mit dot edu> of xmahjongg versions 1 and 2 by Jeff S. Young <jsy at cray dot
com>.
Features
- Those pretty, round-edged colored tiles
- Multiple tile sets (it comes with ten)
- Multiple layouts (it comes with twenty-four)
- Undo and redo
- Helpful hints for happy play, and a clean button for cheating
- Boards that are always solvable (but you can turn this feature off)
- It can show you a solution
- Aesthetics (or ugliness, depending on your taste)
- We regret to report some featurecide relative to version 2: there are no
tournaments, no visible board numbers, and no layout configuration mode.
May these features rest in peace, probably forever.
Since the license of the rewritten versions is GPL, the binary package can be
redistributed and the restriction was removed.

This package needs working hardware OpenGL support.
Based on a package submitted by David Ferlier via PR pkg/20064.
Changes include:
2.4.1:
- unlimited number of backgrounds for themes (03/03/08 M.S.)
- if a levelset is selected its highscore chart is shown (03/02/27 M.S.)
- the warp icon gets static after it blinked four times (03/02/27 M.S.)
- the official levelsets 'Original', 'AddOn-1' and 'AddOn-2' became the
first entries in the levelset list (03/02/27 M.S.)
- default warp limit is now 80% of bricks (03/02/27 M.S.)
- scores are displayed while player changes (03/02/23 M.S.)
- loading themes from installation path no longer restricted to the
default ones (03/02/23 M.C.)

- extra balls (random initial direction) can no longer move straight up
(when they did so they simply left the screen as no target could be computed
for them) (02/12/13 M.S.)

- improved handling of scrollbars (02/12/11 M.S.)

(02/09/21 M.S.)
- bonus stack is cleared at beginning of new level (02/09/21 M.S.)
- replaced 'wontgiveup.wav' with 'verygood.wav' (02/09/20 M.S.)
- implemented 'warp' option to switch to next level before all bricks
where cleared (02/09/19 M.S.)

be cleansed of -R or -rpath values if ${_USE_RPATH} is "no". By
default, FIX_RPATH contains LIBS, X11_LDFLAGS, and LDFLAGS, and
additional variables may be appended from package Makefiles.
Many bugfixes and functionality enhancements including:
kdegames
Move Atlantik from kdenonbeta to kdegames, Rob Kaper <kaper@kde.org>

Solver/adviser and game logs (replay/save/load) for KMines,
Nicolas Hadacek <hadacek@kde.org>
Export, statistics and histogram for highscores (KMines, KSirtet,
KFouleggs and Klickety), Nicolas Hadacek <hadacek@kde.org>
Added different difficulty levels to KLines, Waldo Bastian <bastian@kde.org>
kdetoys
Minor improvements and bugfixes.
read/parse this book, in reality it wasn't. It doesn't seem to understand
full pgn format and instead uses an abbreviated format (which all the other
book packages use as well). It sort of interprets full pgn but gets lots
of things wrong.
Include a script to convert the book to a proper format and then run gnuchess
across that and it seems to find much less errors.
This is a bugfix release, no new features introduced.
As a compensation for no new features, savegames and bones levels
from NetHack 3.4.0 should work, and that's why I kept the datafile
directory named nethackdir340. In theory you should be able to
simply update the nethack pkgs and continue playing, but I'll not
accept any death threats if it doesn't work, so please make sure
you make the appropriate backups before trying.
