Because git is failing, most likely due to dorm's restrictive firewall

I am trying to download snapshots from here: http://gitorious.org/crawl/crawl/trees/master/crawl-ref

but for some reason, when trying to compile, I get an error:

state.cc: In function ‘bool interrupt_cmd_repeat(activity_interrupt_type, const activity_interrupt_data&)’:
state.cc:220: error: cannot convert ‘bool’ to ‘mons_equip_desc_level_type’ for argument ‘2’ to ‘std::string get_monster_equipment_desc(const monster_info&, mons_equip_desc_level_type, description_level_type, bool)’
make: *** [state.o] Error 1

So, what do?


EDIT: when install of master I used 8.0 I got this error instead:


No Git, and util/release_ver doesn't exist.
make: *** [build.h] Error 2

Oh another Poo on this forum, its so descriminating we are supposed to stay off the carpet right? Hence my "Um hi.." thread

Sorry for that.
Uhh.. create a dummy util/release_ver folder?

Assuming you're on a Linux machine, why don't you just grab it from your package manager? Looks like the source is broken.

[SolarShado]

yeah, looks like a bug in the source (i'm no expert, but git's supposed to work over http)
if you're feeling adventurous and know a little C, you could try fixing it... might not succeed, but who knows?

+1 for trying the package manager though (assuming you're on linux)

Package manager versions of crawl are badly outdated. For that matter, the downloadable source from the webpage is for version7.2, not trunk (8 atm). The problem is that I can't either get trunk via git (due to firewall. substituting git:// for http:// isn't working either) or compile the snapshots I get from the webpage.

hmm, where should I create this?
