Description: fantasy turn-based strategy game - complete suite (metapackage)
This metapackage pulls in the complete set of the latest stable version, most helpful if you
always want to have all the official campaigns installed. If you only want to play over the
network with other players or want to play only a few campaigns you just need to install the
wesnoth-core package and the wanted campaign packages.
Battle for control of villages, using variety of units which have advantages and disadvantages
in different types of terrains and against different types of attacks. Units gain experience
and advance levels, and are carried over from one scenario to the next in a campaign.

Misplaced savegame files after update to 1.8

Bug description:
Binary package hint: wesnoth-1.8
I fired up Battle for Wesnoth today after a few weeks away and found that my saved games had evaporated. I had noticed that the menu entry for Wesnoth was labeled 1.8, but thought nothing of it. Then I went looking in my ~ to see if the files were still there, and they were- in a directory labelled ~/.wesnoth1.6/saves - so I chalked it up to an update that didn't go quite right. There isn't any ~/.wesnoth1.8 directory, so I'm not sure where to relocate the data that was located in ~./wesnoth1.6.
OK, that's not correct. Immediately after writing that, I tried to mkdir ~/.wesnoth1.8 and was told that the directory exists. Refreshed the Nautilus pane and saw it. I don't know what happened there or what I did wrong, but now I have copied the contents of ~/.wesnoth1.6/saves tp ~/.wesnoth1.8/saves and the saved games show up now in the Load Game dialog within Wesnoth. Tried loading a saved game and it worked okay, with a dialog saying "This saved game is from a different version, load it anyway?"
1) Description: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS Release: 10.04
2) wesnoth: Installed: 1:1.8.5-1~lucid1
3) Expected seamless upgrade behavior from 1.6 to 1.8. Maybe something has changed with the savegame format of which I'm unaware?
4) Instead save files were "lost".
