Sopwith (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
Sopwith is a sidescrolling shoot 'em up created by David L. Clark of BMB Compuscience. It runs on the IBM PC under DOS but there is also a port to the Atari 520ST. The game involves piloting a Sopwith biplane, attempting to bomb enemy buildings while avoiding fire from enemy planes and various other obstacles.
Sopwith was created to demonstrate the "Imaginet" proprietary networking system developed by BMB Compuscience.[1] David L. Clark, employed as a programmer at BMB, developed Sopwith as a multiplayer game. The multiplayer function will not operate without the Imaginet hardware and drivers. However, single player functionality was also included, with the player flying alone or against computer-controlled planes. Because of this, the game was widely distributed, even though the Imaginet system itself was not hugely successful.
All versions of Sopwith feature four-color CGA graphics. Sound is provided by the PC speaker in the form of music and sound effects.
The C source code to Sopwith was released in 2000,[2] at first under a non-commercial use license, but later under the GNU GPL at the request of fans

Why would it be acceptable for ./configure to fail? Hint hint

Have you tried Triplane Turmoil ? It should work in DOSBox.

leo2501 · 2008-06-17 00:22:06

This is the patch. Save it as gcc4.3.patch

Weird, I did not have that. Perhaps a cut and past error.

leo2501 · 2008-06-17 10:33:20

well, tryed a lot more times but the same error again and again

Stefan Husmann · 2008-06-17 10:55:30

I will try again this evening. I am not at my arch system now.

Stefan Husmann · 2008-06-17 15:31:56

I upload the tarball to the AUR. I cannot reproduce the error you got, sorry.
If the build fails again, please delete the src-directory and try again.

There already was a first tester on AUR, so it should work now.
