Did you try it and got an error?
-->pls send me an private message with a link to the logfile.
If not: everyone who has tried (and succeded or failed -yes either) pls send me such a logfile.
I still didn't get any logfile from any linux users. And I don't want to declare my mod stable before i had a glance at such a log. Just to make sure it works as intended.
I didn't try to install as the directory structure doesn't match up.
My directory structure is / home / avorion / .avorion / galaxies / GalaxyName / with factions, players, sectors as directories under GalaxyName.
