Gnubik version 2.4 released

Item posted by John Darrington <jmd> on Sat 09 Apr 2011 11:41:09 AM UTC.

Version 2.4 of gnubik is now released.

Gnubik is a 3D single player game which displays an interactive cube
similar to the well known Rubik Cube.

The primary download location is http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnubik
Nearby mirrors are listed at http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gnubik

Features of this release include:

    * Animation is now significantly faster, making the
      program a lot less frustrating when run on machines with
      low-end graphics.

    * You can now show several concurrent views of the
      cube from different angles.

    * `Cubes' are no longer restricted to a cubic shape.
       General right-angled parallelepipeds are now
       possible.

    * Corrected minor errors in the documentation.

    * Fixed some portability issues.

    * Fixed a bug where the program would crash on
      startup with larger size cubes.

    * Added eo, uk and sl translations.

    * We now depend on Gtk+ version 2.20 or later.

    * Made sure it'll work with Guile 2.0 although Guile 1.8
      is sufficient.
