Description Paul Dufresne 2021-07-16 21:34:49 UTC 
I might be confused... package description says there is a acms command to run the server, but pkg-files does not seems to list it.

When ran, under XFCE (14.0-Current), it hang, not opening any window.

Pressing Ctrl-C or Ctrl-D does not help... have to kill -9 [process id] to kill it.

    games/acm: Deprecate.

    The port is not maintained, abandoned upstream and it does not work with any of
    the instructions found online:

    https://www.icosaedro.it/acm/manual/acmdoc-basic.htm
    https://www.gnu.org/software/acm/manual/acm.html#Launching-a-game

    In addition the distribution is hosted by amdmi3@ who was not aware of that.
