Bug#731721: scorched3d fails to run with cryptic (huge) message about GLSLProgram

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

Package: scorched3d
Version: 43.3+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I launched scorched3d and then clicked "Play"

after a few seconds, i got a dialog box showing the following crazy
message (dozens of newlines included, the dialog box was insanely
tall):

---------------------------
The Scorched3d process terminated due to configuration errors.






























































































































GLSLProgram : linking of program failed : error: shader uses too many varying components ...
(36 > 32)


---------------------------


It probably shouldn't print all these newlines.

this is the graphics controller on this machine:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Atom Processor D4xx/D5xx/N4xx/N5xx Integrated Graphics Controller

I have no idea what to do to fix this problem, but if you have
suggestions, i can try to test them.

  --dkg
