A bugfix release has been... released. A version bump will probably be enough.
Simply renaming the ebuild will not work. In scummvm-0.6.1.ebuild, the line SRC_URI="mirror://sourceforge/scummvm/${P}.tar.bz2" will need to be changed to SRC_URI="mirror://sourceforge/scummvm/${P}-src.tar.bz2" I can't test if the gcc 3.4-patch is still needed as I'm using gcc 3.3.3. I just commented out the epatch line. scummvm-tools-0.6.1.ebuild will need '-src' added also. It'll also need the following line before src-compile(): S="${WORKDIR}/scummvm-0.6.1-tools" There's probably a better way to do this but don't ask me. I've never done a single ebuild.
the gcc 3.4 patch fails to apply and is not neccessary any more. 0.6.1 compiles fine with gcc 3.4.1 here. the whole src_unpack function can be removed from the ebuild. the 0.6.0 ebuild with altered SRC_URI and src_unpack removed works nicely for me.
0.6.1 has been added to portage but is package masked right now since upstream noticed a bug right after release. Keep your eyes open for 0.6.1b.
A small note: ScummVM 0.6.1b has been released.
Yeah, I'll deal with it as soon as I can actually download it.
0.6.1b added to CVS.
