Bug 46738 – AisleRiot solitare of gnome-games-2.6.0.1 dies

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Derek Dolney 2004-04-03 19:31:14 UTC]

There is a bug in the hint calculation of the AisleRiot solitare game in gnome-games-2.6.0.1. Sometimes when you press on the hint button on the toolbar, the game dies with this error:

ERROR: Unbound variable: check-same-color

Try pressing the button several times at different points in the game to get the bug to show itself.

By the way, this bug happens for the Agnes game of AisleRiot. It does not seem to happen for Klondike. I didn't test any of the others.

Interesting bug. I'm not much of a schemer myself, but it seems to be a trivial
bug inside agnes.scm. Please try this patch; to apply it, you could do:

  cd /usr/share/sol-games && patch -u -p0 < /path/to/agnes_hint.patch

Searching Gnome's bugzilla, I couldn't find any related report, so if this
seems to fix it for you, this could be reported upstream. Thanks.

This seems to fix the problem. Thanks!

[Comment 4 Leonardo Boshell (RETIRED) 2004-04-22 10:04:06 UTC]

This has been fixed by the upstream authors now.

Thanks for your report.

if the attached patch fixed this, please also add it to our current ebuild.

Note that this particular fix (resolved upstream?) is not fixed in 2.6.1
