The ironic thing is that I would guess that more than half the developers use a distro of linux :).  

I guess I thought that most linux users could build their own since most linux installs include most of the required tools.   Plus there is complications with all the different distros.  I was taking a page from gentoo ( the distro I use ) and having people build their own versions.  

Now, that being said we are developing a much improved updater system that will make it much easier to provide the final packages as well as the updater components for all 3 main operating systems.

I\'m using Mandrake. Anyway, why do the updater crash? No error or anything. It comes too mir2 then it disappears.

I am on Gentoo, too. The problem with building Planeshift ourselves is that there is no tarball. If someone could release a tarball for each release for CEL, Crystal Space and Planeshift, a lot of people would build it themselves. Especially when there is an ebuild for that.

Nothing I can do now. I made the installer available yesterday. They\'ll reach the mirrors whenever the mirrors get them.
