Package Update Request: Lutris 5.12 -> 5.13

#1 Post by talera »

Hello!

I would like to ask if it is possible for you to backport the 5.13 - Version for Lutris from Sid into MX Testing?

5.13 has been released in May and contains some improvements including Battle.net integration.
(https://github.com/lutris/lutris/releases)

Thank you in advance!

I don't know if that's something you could consider, but there's a flatpak release of Lutris:
https://flathub.org/apps/net.lutris.Lutris

As a flatpak, you will always get the newest version.

Hi, thank you for your message and suggestion!

I am not opposed to flatpacks in general (in fact I consider them to be very useful in a lot of situations), however I usually prefer the "native" packages if they are available.
@Stevo did the backport last time for MX19 & MX21 from Lutris 5.11 to Lutris 5.12 (see the MX19-Lutris-thread viewtopic.php?t=54755&start=10) and it worked great (for me) so I just wanted to ask if that can be done another time. :)

But again thanks for the tip!

Here is 0.5.13 backported for MX 23 for early testing: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-jFW7x ... sp=sharing
MXPI = MX Package Installer
QSI = Quick System Info from menu
The MX Test repository is mostly backports; not the same as Debian testing

A first feedback after a few days of testing the 5.13 - package

During my testing I have been watching the output of

Code: Select all

$lutris -d
and everything is working as usual without any problems.

So far I have tested

- Changing the settings
- Synchronization with GOG and Lutris
- Creating a prefix for a new game and installing it via gog.com
- Creating a prefix for an already installed game
- Installing runners (wine, dosbox, scummvm)
- Playing games via wine, dos and native.

If you would like, I can update this in about two weeks after more testing.

Thank you very much for the backport! :)

After a further month of testing I still don't have anything to complain or add about the performance of Lutris 5.13 under MX23.1
I have also not encountered any bugs or unusual behaviour.

Good work and thank you :)
