Devuan/Debian has package d2x-rebirth which is the rewritten engine that can run Descent, the classic "6 Degrees of Freedom" game.

However, the upstream project has its code on Github which has had major improvements since the last time Debian grabbed the latest version (2013).

So I bothered to build d2x-rebirth myself, from Debian sources and the latest upstream code. All this so I can disable the thief bot in Descent 2.

You're welcome, and I'm sorry for all the time you're going to waste shooting rebellious robots.
