Hi, I think this game deserves a little attention... :-) Taking a quick look at
the build process, creating the ebuild should be really easy...

netPanzer is an online multiplayer tactical warfare game designed for play
across the Internet and over LAN systems. One on one games are possible via
direct connect or modem. netPanzer is designed for FAST ACTION combat -- it is
not another resource management clone. In fact, there aren't any resources at
all. Each player will have many units of different types at their disposal.
Players can fight until their units are destroyed -- then respawn and keep on
going. The game is real-time, but it's based on quick tactical action and unit
management. Battles progress quickly and constantly; in fact, they never let
up. There is no stop in the action because there is no waiting for resources to
be collected and converted into weaponry. Players can join or leave multiplayer
games at any time.

netpanzer-0.1.1.ebuild

This is my preliminary ebuild. It's messed up right now since I don't
understand the ./configure path hell :-(. It compiles fine but during the
install part, it complaints about sandbox path violation. I'm unable to force
my own paths...

Anyway, it has all the other things (SRC_URI, HOMEPAGE, LICENSE, DEPEND,
RDEPEND, ...) done so I think it will be a question of minutes for someone
skilled to take a look at the ebuild and finish it...

Looking forward to see this cool game in portage soon...

Thanks...
Radek

Use text/plain for ebuilds, please...

Thanks for the ebuild anyway, I'll take a look ASAP...

The new ebuild works perfectly for me. Thanks for this great job. Now, it's
ready for portage tree (my suggestion is games-strategy)...

Added to CVS marked ~x86.  It seems a little fragile to me so maybe marking
it stable is a little premature yet.

Thanks for the ebuild Matze.  I only tweaked it a little bit before adding
it.

Enjoy.
