| philipballew | Question. I bought a game online and I wanted to install it but the package says its of bad quality. Can someone look at the package if I send them the link and tell me what I should do? | 04:35 |

| philipballew | nvm, i will just compile it | 04:48 |

| bkerensa | philipballew: you can force the package to install even if its of bad quality | 21:35 |
| philipballew | bkerensa, would that mess anything up on my system though? | 21:46 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: depends what is making the package of bad quality | 21:46 |
| philipballew | thats a good point | 21:46 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: in all liklihood though you should be able to rectify any issues it could potentially cause | 21:46 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: likely the debian tree of the package is just of poor quality | 21:47 |
| philipballew | valid point. I was gonna compile it, but checkinstall has a bug now that makes it not work very well at all. | 21:47 |
| philipballew | Debian trees confuse me | 21:47 |
| philipballew | :) | 21:47 |
| bkerensa | might be nice to just repackage it :) | 21:48 |
| bkerensa | and send them a new deb | 21:48 |
| philipballew | wouldnt hurt. packaging is pretty easy once you do it a few times | 21:49 |
