Playing pasang on Raspberry Pi 3

I'm having fun with my new toy, namely a Raspberry Pi 3 running Raspbian. Not surprisingly, it can be used to play Pasang Emas. Here are the steps:

• Download Pasang Emas from pasang-emas.sourceforge.net (the latest release file is pasang-emas-5.2.0.tar.xz).
• Unzip/extract the downloaded file.
• Inside a command line terminal, go to the unzipped folder. In my case, I used this command:
  
  

      $ cd Downloads/pasang-emas-5.2.0/

  
  
• Then, install all dependencies. The following command should do the work:
  
  

      $ sudo apt install build-essential gtk+-3.0 yelp itstool libxml2-utils

  
  
• Then build and install Pasang Emas using the following commands:
  
  

      $ ./configure
      $ make
      $ sudo make install

Now, the irritating part. While you can now start the game by typing "pasang-emas" on the command line terminal, the main desktop menu will only be updated to show the new Pasang Emas entry after... sigh... rebooting. No, Pasang Emas is not guilty here.

Anyway, enjoy!
