torcs 1.2.3 ebuild

Fixed URLs and updated dependency on plib 1.8.3 (see
http://torcs.sourceforge.net/sections.php?op=viewarticle&artid=3#dependencies)

Unfortunately emerging with this ebuild fails on my system:

checking for sin in -lm... no
configure: error: Can't find libm. Please check config.log and if you can't
solve the problem send the file to torcs-users@lists.sourceforge.net with the
subject "torcs compilation problem"

I have had the same trouble with libm (configure output). The real problem is
with x_libraries. I have the latest xorg-x11 installed, so I have x libs in
/usr/lib. maybe someone has x libs in other place. Line egamesconf || die must
be changed to
egamesconf --x-libraries=/usr/lib || die

I tried to install it, had 2 issues. Sergei's suggestion fixed the first one.
Second was error about glActiveTexture undeclared. After searching in forums,
found that switching to xorg-x11 OpenGL works:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-232590-highlight-glactivetexture.html
After this it installed and works OK.

So, once the second issue is resolved so that ebuild can switch to xorg
OpenGLif needed (I have no idea how this can be done in ebuild), I think it
should be ready to go into the portage tree.

btw, what about adding amd64?

I have installed torcs using this ebuild and the game works ... the only problem was that I had to add -fPIC to my CFLAGS and recompile plib before the compilation of torcs succeeded

When I try to emerge torcs-1.2.3.ebuild (with emerge torcs-1.2.3.ebuild) then I
get:

 emerging by path implies --oneshot... adding --oneshot to options.

*** emerging by path is broken and may not always work!!!

Torcs 1.2.3 new ebuild.

Hi, this ebuild solves the libm error as proposed, so please, anyone with
permisions obsolete the other ebuild and use this.

Please, add this to portage, thanks :-)

"the libm error" to which you refer is not the problem.  I've added the
blocking
bug so it's clearer.

ive switched the SRC_URI to just use the 'full' tarball rather than sep
packages

now in portage, but nvidia stuff still goes boom ...
