poplaun 0.2

Post by Norbert »

After a small delay (long, actually), here is poplaun 0.2.
It's a tool to download and launch Prince of Persia mods by parsing popot.org XML files.

For Windows: poplaun-0.2-win32.zip (mirror)
For GNU/Linux: poplaun-0.2.tar.gz (mirror)

Version 0.2 changes:

Code: Select all

+ Basic parsing of [spoiler] BBCode in comments.
* Fixed launching of mods with multiple executables.
* Fixed launching of SDLPoP and MININIM executables with spaces.
* Using httpS when accessing popot.org.

Hm. No longer works on Linux.
Still works on Windows (10).

Ends with:
[FAILED] Could not retrieve "modsu.xml": Resource temporarily unavailable!

This means that, for some reason, g_file_copy() in GetXML() fails.
Don't know why.

I compiled poplaun-0.2 on Linux, and it works for me without problems.
I can update the mod list, download and start mods.

Can you tell me what these four say on your system?

$ ./poplaun --debug|grep GTK
$ sudo apt show libgtk-3-dev|grep Version
$ sudo apt show libzip-dev|grep Version
$ sudo apt show libxml2-dev|grep Version

Their output for me:

[ INFO ] Compiled with GTK+ 3.22.30, linked with GTK+ 3.22.30.
(Before recompiling: [ INFO ] Compiled with GTK+ 3.18.9, linked with GTK+ 3.22.30.)
Version: 3.22.30-1ubuntu3
Version: 1.1.2-1.1
Version: 2.9.4+dfsg1-6.1ubuntu1.2

Thanks.
Probably the problem with poplaun that I'm experiencing is library related then.
I could file a bug report, or simply wait it out until they catch up.
Most likely I'll do the latter, given poplaun isn't used much anyway.
