I recently tried to install Simcity 3000 on Debian Etch, and got an error as I was trying to patch it.. Kinda a bummer. No joy so far on finding answers, will have to keep messing with it, but if anyone figures it out, leave me a comment. I am getting the following error when attempting to apply the patch :

Verifying archive integrity…tail: Warning: “+number” syntax is deprecated, please use “-n +number”
OK
Uncompressing SimCity 3000 Unlimited 2.0a Updatetrap: usage: trap [-lp] [arg signal_spec ...]

Then just stops. Never appears to apply the patch. Still does not run with any of the tricks I detailed in one of my original posts on the blog.
