 I don't understand this comment. What problems do you see there?
Upstream works explicitly to _not_ have any troubled along that lines in
their stable releases and I am not aware of any - can you base this
remark on something, because it makes it sound like there are some.

 Would be really interested to know about them, from both a packager
point of view but also from my involvment with upstream.

 Thanks in advance,
Rhonda

As it seems there are problems with using this version in a multiplayer game together with the current one in maverick, I think it should be updated. There are no Ubuntu-specific changes to this package and I can confirm that building and running the package from sid works on maverick amd64.
