icon gentoo users: beware upgrades (+2)  
I'm a Gentoo Linux user. Recently I did a routine upgrade of all of my system's packages, including upgrading from drod-1.6.3 to drod-1.6.5. In an unexpected move, the gentoo install process overwrote my savegames, leaving me very, very sad :(

I had a backup from several levels back. The backup is level 17, but I'm pretty sure I was all the way up to 20-something before upgrading. Can someone give me a savegame file from further on?

Ouch! I'm sorry you had to go through that. We'll be working on a dat-file upgrade system so that this won't be a problem in the future. Again, sorry!
