A script to fix the current issues preventing Project Zomboid from working on Linux, with the option to alter the projectzomboid.sh

pz-linux-fix.sh

#!/bin/sh
#
# Written for Project Zomboid Version RC2.9 0008b
#
# this script assumes that it's being run from the directory that projectzomboid.sh is in
#
# usage:
#   pz-linux-fix.sh [options]
#
#   --optional:
#       also change things in the projectzomboid.sh
#
#   --optional-only:
#       *only* change things in the projectzomboid.sh

if [ "$1" = '--optional' ] || [ "$1" = '--optional-only' ]
then
    # make sure we get projectzomboid.log instead of projectzomboid.sh.log
    sed -i 's/^SCRIPT="`basename $0`"/SCRIPT="`basename $0 .sh`"/' projectzomboid.sh

    # fix something that's probably a typo
    sed -i 's/^XMODIFIERS= java \\/XMODIFIERS=\njava \\/' projectzomboid.sh

    # make the script return an error if java returns an error
    sed -i -e 's/^java \\/exec java \\/' -e '/^exit 0/d' projectzomboid.sh

    # make sure things printed on stderr are sent to the log as well
    sed -i 's/^    >"${LOGFILE}"/    >"${LOGFILE}" 2>\&1/' projectzomboid.sh

    if [ "$1" = "--optional-only" ]
    then
        exit 0
