I’ve just about had it with Ubuntu. The last three or four versions have introduced all sorts of breakage when installed.
The latest thing they’ve messed up is ZSNES. I just finished doing a clean install of Ubuntu 8.10, only to find that the version of ZSNES in the repos is broken!
A quick workaround to this is to install the version for gutsy from:
http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/z/zsnes/zsnes_1.510-1_i386.deb
Then open a terminal and issue the command
# aptitude hold zsnes
To keep it from being overwritten by updates.
