Hi, I'm using guix b61e057. Just installed AstroMenace and it does not start. Trying to launch it from a terminal prints the following error:

AstroMenace 1.4.1
VFS version 190427
Compiled against SDL version 2.0.12
Linking against SDL version 2.0.12
vw_OpenVFS(): Can't find VFS file share/astromenace/gamedata.vfs
main(): gamedata.vfs file not found or corrupted.

Dear,

Thank you for the report.

First, there is no substitute; which is often a bad sign. If Cuirass
wizard reads, is it possible to trigger again the build of
'astromenace'.

Well, the file 'gamedata.vfs' seems to be a file which needs to be
built (it does not appear in the upstream source). And I am not sure
this file is compliant with "free" licenses; Debian locates it in
'non-free', for example.

All the best,
simon

I saw this when I tried to run it. I fixed the DATADIR configure flag
and now it starts as expected.

As far as the file being built, an excerpt from the build log:
VFS file was opened /tmp/guix-build-astromenace-1.4.1.drv-0/source/gamedata/models/models.pack
models/tracked/tank-07.vw3d file added to VFS.
models/earthfighter/sf-illum01.vw2d file added to VFS.
models/militarybuilding/aa-gun-01.vw3d file added to VFS.
models/earthfighter/sf-09.vw3d file added to VFS.
models/alienmothership/alm-02.vw3d file added to VFS.
<..snip..>
models/normalmap/planet_asteroids_nm.tga file added to VFS.
models/normalmap/q_class2_nm.tga file added to VFS.
models/normalmap/bomber_nm.tga file added to VFS.
models/normalmap/buildings_nm.tga file added to VFS.
lang/pl/menu/button_weaponry_in.tga file added to VFS.
lang/pl/menu/button_weaponry_out.tga file added to VFS.
VFS file was created /tmp/guix-build-astromenace-1.4.1.drv-0/build/gamedata.vfs

As for Debian placing it in non-free, it might be worth checking the
licenses and files again.

From the debian packaging of astromenace-data¹,
RAW_VFS_DATA/MODELS/models.pack is precompiled because the source of the
artwork wasn't released for distribution, but the precompiled assets are
CC-BY-SA-3.0 (Debian has 1.3.2 with CC-3, our source is 1.4.1 with a
CC-4 license file).
