Hi folks,

I have updated my list with your feedback and re-tested the merged games.

(I somehow have the feeling it would be better to set up a little wiki page
 instead of trying to send a well-formatted email to the ML each and every
 time new stuff comes in.)

Other trouble:

* fourinline
   - complains about "Installation error: No AI engine found. Continue with=
out AI."
   - doesn't play the computer's part (due to missing AI)
   - crashes at exit

* palapeli
   - doesn=92t find its shipped puzzles (overview is empty at startup) =

   - can crash at some stage
   [Ian] Expected.  Neither QStandardPaths nor loading a plugin are working=
 well
         on OSX at the moment=85 ;-)

* kpat
   - formerly crashed with FAILURE (KCmdLineArgs) =

     and ASSERT: "0" in file =85/kcmdlineargs.cpp, line 1435
   - currently fails to build on OSX/CI

* kigo k
   - can=92t find a go engine
   - then crashes at exit

* kreversi
   - starts with main window, game board is visible
   - can=92t get into game as a dialog appears with 2 unreadably small butt=
ons
   - then crashes at exit

I know that Jeremy can run e.g. kapman _without_ crashing at exit and it wo=
uld be
good to figure out whether there are more cases like that and what the reas=
on for
this difference is. I am using the OSX/CI system, whereas he uses a QSP-pat=
ched
kdesrc-build developer installation.

Greets,
Marko


P.S.: I might have missed some more "phonon backend plugin=94 issues...



___________________________________________________________________________=
_______

s) "WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend pl=
ugin
    could not be loaded=94

   [Ian] Re the "s", if you have OpenAL and libsndfile libraries, KGr should
         not be loading Phonon.  If you do not have them, KGr should disable
         sound altogether and give you a popup message.

   [Me]  Ports openal as well as openal-soft fail on Mavericks as of now.
         I remember Ryan mentioning that openal is outdated and one should =
use
         openal-soft. The latter I=92d like to avoid as well, as it require=
s tons
         of X11 dependencies, which I just got rid of by introducing a mesa=
-free
         libepoxy-devel for the kdecoration framework! :(


g) Didn't know how to play granatier, but I was able to move around the lit=
tle
   sprite!


m) "Failed to establish shared memory mapping, will fallback to private mem=
ory =97
    memory usage will increase=94

k) fails to create lock and index files like ksnakeduel above (kpc will go =
away)
