I installed Supertux2 from the Debian stretch/stable repositories. According to supertux2 --version, it's v0.5.1, but according to man supertux2, it's v0.3.2-SVN. Anyway. According to the documentation (http://supertux.lethargik.org/wiki/Console), I should be able to add (console #t) to the ~/.supertux2/config or ~/.local/share/supertux2/config file. Once I do that, however, pressing ^ (caret) inside the game doesn't bring up the console...
Plus, if I run supertux2 --console from the terminal, it says Error: Unknown option '--console'' even though the --console option is documented in the man page.
How do I enable the console?

I'm not sure what you're asking; I installed Supertux from the stable repositories.Bulkley wrote:The Stable repository has Supertux. Is that not good enough?

Your title says Supertux2. Ubuntu uses Supertux2. Did you get it from Ubuntu repositories? If so it may not work in Debian.michael_a wrote:I'm not sure what you're asking; I installed Supertux from the stable repositories.

The package is named supertux, but the executable is named supertux2. There is no supertux (without the 2) executable on my systemI installed it directly from the Debian repositories; I'm only using packages from there.
This is /etc/apt/sources.list
Code: Select all
sudo aptitude install supertux

this can sometimes happen with low-maintenance packages - the man pages can be out of date.michael_a wrote:Plus, if I run supertux2 --console from the terminal, it says Error: Unknown option '--console'' even though the --console option is documented in the man page.
can you
Code: Select all
supertux2 --help
edit:
just had a look myself. no --console option.
maybe try '--developer' instead?
