supertux @0.6.2: No such file or directory: "/Applications/MacPorts/SuperTux.app/Contents/Resources/SuperTux.app/Contents/Resources/data"

Darn.

I saw this once or twice during testing, but I thought I had scrubbed it out of the build in the end, and ran it many times locally here. But the builds are showing this again.

% /Applications/MacPorts/SuperTux.app/Contents/MacOS/supertux2
[FATAL] /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_games_supertux/supertux/work/SuperTux-v0.6.2-Source/src/supertux/main.cpp:610 Unexpected exception: boost::filesystem::canonical: No such file or directory: "/Applications/MacPorts/SuperTux.app/Contents/Resources/SuperTux.app/Contents/Resources/data"

I'll have to patch main.cpp I guess, or otherwise sort this out.

Apologies -- thought I had it.

This launches it:

 % SUPERTUX2_DATA_DIR=/Applications/MacPorts/SuperTux.app/Contents/Resources/data /Applications/MacPorts/SuperTux.app/Contents/MacOS/supertux2

The upstream MacOS application bundle uses a launch script that sets something like this, but this appeared to be working for me, so I didn't think I'd need it.

Worst case scenario, I guess I can write a script for it like they do.

In baf8d75c50d11c8dd4e84abd1bf79b0658f5f5ac/macports-ports (master):

supertux: use launch script

this app requires assistance to locate it's
datadir. We use a launch script to launch
it therefore, setting an env var to the
location of the data directory.

Initially it seemed to work properly as it
will reference files in it's original build
directory if they exist.
