Hi all,
I am running since some years a debian wheezy. Glines which is part of gnome-games does not work with wheezy installation. This bug is fully documented on the internet. For any reasons I cannot migrate to Jessie or others. My question is how to get a working Glines on my wheezy installation. I have tried aptitude update, reinstall, this is alway the same buggy gline version which is installed. Following is the content of my sources.list :
christian@orinoco:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
#

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 7.7.0 _Wheezy_ - Official i386 CD Binary-1 20141018-11:53]/ wheezy main

Thanks for help

Thanks ondoho to point this. I added the 'testing' repo to reinstall glines, it was a test. Does it mean that there is no updated version or is there a another way to get it ?
thanks

^ ok, if you did NOT run apt-get upgrade after adding the testing line, you should be fine by

a) uninstalling whatever you installed form testing (incl. dependencies pulled in!)
b) removing that line
c) update & upgrade

and you should be back to a healthy wheezy.

have you tried installing this version:
https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/glines
?

Hi, thank you to have taken care of my wheezy. But glines still do not work. I give up. Thank you.

Testing at this point is stretch, with stable being jessie. Which would likely be stretch as stable in the next couple of weeks. In jessie, it looks like glines is a transitional package to five-or-more.

$ sudo apt-get install five-or-more
$ five-or-more
