Bugzilla Bug 57423

The current ebuild uses the source file
"mirror://sourceforge/gens/gens-rc2.tar.gz",
when the latest version available is gens-rc3.tar.gz.
The current ebuild does not work with the latest version, it fails in
src_install().

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Rename gens-rc2.tar.gz to gens-rc3.tar.gz, fetch, digest, attempt to emerge.
Actual Results:  
make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.

!!! ERROR: games-emulation/gens-2.12a-r1 failed.
!!! Function src_install, Line 31, Exitcode 2
!!! make install failed

Expected Results:  
clean install

patch to current gens ebuild

ebuild works fine with patch

Can this be updated? It just requires 2 lines to be changed in the ebuild.

This tarball should also be considered, it adds opengl support to gens:

For more information, see this thread:

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1708553

it seems that the OpenGL version (which is an order of magnitude faster) has
been updated again

updating ebuild with new location.

Created an attachment (id=45788) [edit]
updated ebuild for Gens OpenGL build

rc3 is in now, just not the opengl tarball

I edited the existing ebuild to use the gens-mythgame patchset, both opengl and
non varieties @http://mythtv.wbond.net/gens_for_linux_mythgame_edition/ :

This fixes 144052, 153593, and this bug. Tested on x86.

Can anyone have a look at this? Otherwise we might as well just close this
