Dwarf Fortress

This repo contains the data necessary to compile Dwarf Fortress into a Flatpak. Currently 0.43.03 w/ dfhack is 32-bit only, so you need to install 32-bit versions of the Flatpak platform and SDK. 0.43.05 doesn't have dfhack but it is 64-bit, and such doesn't need the 32-bit layer anyway.

To build it you need the freedesktop platform and SDK, which can be installed in the following manner;

$ wget https://sdk.gnome.org/keys/gnome-sdk.gpg
$ flatpak --user remote-add --gpg-import=gnome-sdk.gpg gnome http://sdk.gnome.org/repo
$ flatpak --user install gnome org.gnome.Sdk 3.22
$ flatpak --user install gnome org.gnome.Platform 3.22

For 32-bit;

$ wget https://sdk.gnome.org/keys/gnome-sdk.gpg
$ flatpak --user remote-add --gpg-import=gnome-sdk.gpg gnome http://sdk.gnome.org/repo
$ flatpak --user install --arch=i386 gnome org.gnome.Sdk 3.22
$ flatpak --user install --arch=i386 gnome org.gnome.Platform 3.22

To build and install/run the application you can do the following;

$ make
$ make install
$ make run

The application data when run can be found in ~/.var/app/com.bay12games.DwarfFortress/df_linux

TODO

Clean up more unnecessary data
Improve install steps, strip down configure parameters to just what's needed
Perhaps work the Dwarf Fortress folders into a more XDG-ish state (~/data, ~/cache, ~/config, etc)
Make a proper readme
Look into possibly packaging and publishing the package somewhere, depending on what bay12games thinks about it
