Description Andrew Conkling 2004-08-19 13:19:25 UTC 
Cannonsmash produces the following (fatal) error on startup: "No datafile directory."

The .dat files I have found are installed in /usr/share/games/csmash/Parts/<Model>/*.dat.  However, this directory is, apparently, not specified in the makefile, according to the author:

"Maybe Gentoo package is not configured correctly. Cannon Smash search current 
directory and the directory specified in makefile for datafile. If it cannot
find datafile, "No datafile directory" error occurs. 
Please check to where the datafile (strictly speaking, "Parts/model/head01.dat")
is installed and whether the datafile directory is specifed in makefile or not."  --nan@utmc.or.jp

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Tried reemerging cannonsmash
Actual Results:  
Program exits

Expected Results:  
Table tennis action!
