Good catch, thank you! I included it in pkgrel 5. I just wonder why this folder has never been included by the previous maintainers, considering it has been updated to 2.7 a year ago[1] and nobody ever complained... :) [1]: http://pkgbuild.com/git/aur-mirror.git/commit/boswars/PKGBUILD?id=14d0d6bdf1e22b3382b575c5d93ed8587340c15e

It segfaults on some maps. PKGBUILD fix: - cp -r campaigns doc graphics intro maps scripts sounds units "$pkgdir"/opt/bos + cp -r campaigns doc graphics intro maps patches scripts sounds units "$pkgdir"/opt/bos

Adopted and fixed the dependencies. The png files are fixed in the prepare() function.

Someone have filled a bug against boswars 2.7 that contains fixed images: http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?39610 I did not test it.

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/gentoo/dev/271064 suggest to use pngcrush -fix ... not sure if png-crush does better than optipng. http://pmt.sourceforge.net/pngcrush/
