@carlosal1015 Thanks for the report and link to the solution. I patched this to solve the issue for us, but it'd be better to report it upstream too, to the author.

@rekja Maybe the svn repository was down? It doesn't look like you download anything:

  -> Updating impressive svn repository...
Omitted '.'
svn: E155007: None of the targets are working copies

You can try again. It's working for me right now.

@keepitsimpleengr please check that you have accepted the new certificate for the svn repository. In case of doubt, try building this package again in a clean directory. It should be working. In your case it seems you are not getting the files from the svn repo. After doing what I mentioned before, you can also try doing:

svn co https://svn.emphy.de/impressive/trunk/impressive

which would give you a copy of the repo.

@rekja the svn repository was down, but now it's working again so you may retry.

I've updated this package to rev 310 from svn to avoid the crash @mazieres mentions (due to PyGame 2.0.1). There may be other bugs (fullscreen not working on some windows managers) so this is not an stable version, but at least it's working.

A new release may be on its way, but until then I think it's better to use svn than the now-non-working previous stable release.
