The Powder Toy

tymop

Dear all,
I discovered the powder toy in ubuntu, ilstalling it with a .deb file. My actual versus is 52.0. I can see i do not have the last.
Which way to update it? Is there a .deb file or a line to put in my sources.list to update to the lastest version?

Best regards.

you can get the binary from the downloads page but i don't think you could get a .deb

Sorry, we don't provide any Linux packages ourselves, you can however just the autoupdate that's part of the game, a message just show up in the bottom left corner.

My mistake, bottom right is correct.

There is an error when I try the update. That is may be due to the ubuntu package installation.

edit :
OK, it is OK for me : I made the installation without .deb. I replace the bin with the newest.
Thanks for all .

Could be permission, or an old unsupported 64bit version (Which no longer updates).

Certainly a permission problem. the software can not be executed with root permissions.

the copy of the bin file was for me the best solution at the moment.

EDIT (2012/03/03) : today, an update of the .deb supplied by getdeb.net give the versus 71.3-1./

I maintain my own in my PPA. I try to keep it as up-to-date as possible. Both stable and daily builds.

.deb for the lastest version ?
