Awesome job. I greatly enjoyed playing Descent ages ago, and am having a blast once again. Thank you for bringing it all back!

For some reason, when I install this package it hangs on the install and I don't see any of the "post_install" output.

Current issues about libm linking will be resolved with a Bugfix version from upstream within the next days (I hope).

to fix the libm.so.6 error, change the PKGBUILD build to start with this: build() { cd $startdir/src/${pkgname}_v${pkgver}-src sed -ie "/^PREFIX =/s|/usr/local/|/usr/|" SConstruct sed -ie "s/^env = .*$/\0\nenv.Append(LIBS=File('\/lib\/libm.so.6'))/" SConstruct scons sharepath="/usr/share/$pkgname" || return 1

Need to change `install=($pkgname.install)` to `install=$pkgname.install` for it to work. Linking fails: Linking d2x-rebirth ... /usr/bin/ld: main/render.o: undefined reference to symbol 'sinf@@GLIBC_2.2.5' /usr/bin/ld: note: 'sinf@@GLIBC_2.2.5' is defined in DSO /lib/libm.so.6 so try adding it to the linker command line /lib/libm.so.6: could not read symbols: Invalid operation collect2: ld returned 1 exit status scons: *** [d2x-rebirth] Error 1 scons: building terminated because of errors.

Descent 2 is not Abandonware. The game content is still copyrighted and illegal to give away for free. However you can get the game content cheap AND DRM-free (unlike on STEAM) via gog.com. And if you are intending to buy it via gog.com you can also support DXX-Rebirth in the same way using my affiliate link from here: http://www.dxx-rebirth.com/game-content/ That does not cost you anything extra but will support this project - if you like it.

Great work, I love your project! I tested this on Windows XP/7 and on archlinux and it works fine I love this Game, Descent for ever! (for D2 data, I used My very old CD-rom^^) but... it's an abandonware... so, you can give the data, no?
