SuperTux 0.3.0 has been out for hours now. What are you waiting for?

Install prerequisites:
sudo aptitude install checkinstall subversion autoconf jam g++ libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libphysfs-dev libvorbis-dev libogg-dev libopenal-devDownload the source and unzip it:
tar xvfj supertux-0.3.0.tar.bz2 cd supertux-0.3.0Fix the level names to work around an installer bug:
cd data/levels/world1/ sed -i -e "s/ - .*\.stl/.stl/" worldmap.stwm for f in *" "-" "*.stl; do mv "$f" "${f/ - *.stl/.stl}"; done cd ../../..Compile:
./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/usr jamInstall:
sudo checkinstall -Dy "jam install"

sudo aptitude remove supertuxPreviously: Sneak Peek: SuperTux M2
Awesome! Supertux is the best. Great guide! Thanks.

Since someone will no doubt ask, there is a Windows installer at the aforementioned download link, but it does not include the required OpenAL libraries. Windows users will need to download and install OpenAL separately.

sudo apt-get install g++ checkinstall jam libsdl1.2-dev libvorbis-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libphysfs-dev libopenal-dev
and probably some other stuff.

Oh, you’d already written that and I missed it. Feeling stupid right now…

Yuck checkinstall…
Here a real debian package: http://debs.peadrop.com/dists/edgy/backports/
This should be the package that will be included into the next release of Ubuntu (Feisty Fawn). Enjoy!
