Description sven.jonsson 2005-09-03 06:08:02 UTC
When nethack starts with the qt interface, it looks for old save-games, and if 
found, and gives the user a choice to select one of them before showing the 
character selection dialog. In gentoo, the save-games have been moved to 
the /var file system, but this test doesnt check there. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start nethack with the qt interface 
2.save a game 
3.restart nethack 
 
Actual Results:  
Instead of getting an opportunity to directly select my old saved game, I get 
the normal selection dialog. 

Expected Results:  
It should have offered to start my old savegame directly. 

I have a patch for this. I have sent it up-stream, so hopefully it will come 
in the next release. But those are far between, so I send the patch here too.
