It just built successfully for me. This is so exciting!

Ehh, nevermind. All it does is pop up a dialog saying: Please follow steps 1-7 of /usr/share/doc/descent3/USAGE.md and put the files in /home/xamindar/.local/share/descent3!

Even after doing all that it still says the same thing. No explanation of what it doesn't like. I even renamed all the all-caps hog files to all lowercase just in case it didn't like the original all caps names. Oh well.

EDIT. I had to copy the d3-linux.hog from my old loki linux install and then it started working. Weird, the readme sounded like it would create that for me.

I've just created descent3-bin package based on pre-built official binaries as a workaround.

Probably there is an attempt to redefine a macro?
