Bugzilla Bug 94809

Hi games herd!

lincity-ng has released their first prerelease, it's quite playable.

lincity-ng is a simcity-like simulation game with the gameplay engine of the venerable lincity and improved (3D) graphics.

ebuild will be forthcoming.

Anno.

The promised ebuild

This was harder than I thought, thanks to the project using jam instead of
autotools. Some review would be appreciated, lots o' ugly things in there, but
I can't think of a better way.

whoops, sorry, wrong component  

Actually, it goes to games... we're the only ones that do anything with games-*
or dev-games

It does say in the Ebuild submission guideline *not* to submit anything to any 
component other than ebuilds. 
 
Oh, well.

A much saner version of the ebuild, thanks to MatzeB and egore of #lincity

lincity-ng-0.9_rc1.ebuild

The longer I work on this, the shorter the ebuild gets.

comments:

remove virtual/libc from depends
fix the tabs in depends (just one)
remove local myconf
docs are installed in /usr/share/doc/${PF}
set S right before src_compile and remove the comment
put the MY variables before DESCRIPTION and put DESCRIPTION, HOMEPAGE, and
SRC_URI together (like the other games ebuilds).

Thanks Mr. Bones.  
  
While I'm at it: How can I check that an already installed package has been  
compiled with a certain USE-flag (SDL-mixer with oggvorbis in this case)?  
 

use built_with_use from the eutils eclass.  see the tomatoes ebuild for an
example.

and the oggvorbis use flag is deprecated.  use ogg or vorbis depending on what
you need.

lincity-ng-0.9_rc1.ebuild

Changes:
- MY_PV calculated from PV, not set manually
- docs install into /usr/share/docs/${PF}
- S is set right before src_compile
- local myconf removed
- depend tabs fixed
- MY-variables set at the top
- check for "built_with_use -o media-libs/sdl-mixer vorbis oggvorbis" because
sdl-mixer still uses oggvorbis. is it correct to tell the user to re-emerge
with USE=vorbis, or do I need to tell him to use oggvorbis for the time being?

Whoops, forgot: 
- removed dependency on libc 
- added dependency on zlib (hadn't seen that before) 
- lincity-ng's configure and README disagree on minimal versions required on 
some dependencies, opted for the newer version in all cases 

Feel free to add ~ppc to KEYWORDS.

Is this coming into portage?

works fine here... great work. thanks!

Bump. Still not in portage.

lincity-ng-1.0.ebuild

lincity-ng-1.0 has been released. Mangling of the SRC_URI and similar is not
necessary any more since version naming conforms to gentoo conventions.

lincity-ng-1.0 has been released. Mangling of the SRC_URI and similar is not
necessary any more since version naming conforms to gentoo conventions.

Sorry about the duplicate submission, browser hickup. 

Works great here, feel free to add ~amd64 to KEYWORDS

games-simulation/lincity-ng added to portage.  Thanks for the bug report and
ebuild.  nice work on that ebuild.

re: comment #16 - don't do that.  go read the faq at games.gentoo.org
