Full Text Bug Listing

after emerging quake2-icculus, it doesn't run and complains about a missing
file.

Either ref_softx.so if run from X, or ref_soft.so if run from the console.

version is 0.16.1, which is the latest version available for amd64 currently

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge quake2-icculus
2. as a user in the 'games' group, run quake2, sdlquake2, quake2-qmax or
sdlquake2-qmax
3. weep as it fails to work

Actual Results:  
If run from within X, the output is:

oj@unicron ~ $ quake2      
Quake 2 -- Version 3.21+r0.16
Added packfile /usr/share/games/quake2-data/baseq2/pak0.pak (3307 files)

------- Loading ref_softx.so -------

Error: Couldn't fall back to software refresh!

if run from a console, I get the same, but with ref_soft.so instead

Expected Results:  
quake2 should have loaded

maybe worth including the contents of qpkg -l to show which files do get built

Ditto...seems to be a problem with AMD64? (since that's what I have, too)

you built with USE=-X

rebuilt with USE=X

first of all, the ebuild doesn't even check for the X USE flag. Secondly, in
the information I have already given, you'll see that X is quite clearly in my
USE flags.

ok, it appears that after an emerge sync, X now is a use flag that the ebuild
uses, although the version number of the package hasn't changed?

The results of an emerge -pv quake2-icculus were:
[ebuild   R   ] games-fps/quake2-icculus-0.16.1  +aalib -arts -dedicated -ipv6
-joystick -noqmax +opengl -rogue +sdl (-svga) -xatrix 4,695 kB 

but are now:
[ebuild   R   ] games-fps/quake2-icculus-0.16.1  +X +aalib -arts -dedicated
-ipv6 -joystick -noqmax +opengl -rogue +sdl (-svga) -xatrix 4,695 kB 

shouldn't version number (even just the -rX bit) change when the ebuild
changes?

rebuilding to test this will have to wait until tomorrow.

calm down there buddy :P

portage normally sorts your USE flags so i looked at the tail end and didnt see X

quake2 has ALWAYS used X, i just neglected to add it to IUSE, so in reality nothing changed

according to the quake2 makefile, either upstream made a mistake and didnt
include BUILD_X11 support on amd64, or it isnt supported

the 'ifeq ($(ARCH),x86_64)' section is missing this which is under the i386
section:
 ifeq ($(strip $(BUILD_X11)),YES)
  TARGETS += $(BUILDDIR)/ref_softx.$(SHLIBEXT)
 endif

ok, the makefile just has a typo (BUILD_SOFTX instead of BUILD_X11)

regardless, software rendering isnt supported on x86_64 atm ... but quake2 uses that when it is first run, so you get stuck in a loop ... no way to change your driver without starting the game, but no way to start the game without ref_softx ;)

as a workaround, you can for now do this: `quake2 +set vid_ref glx`

added a small workaround to portage ... the default renderer on amd64 will be
'glx' until the 'softx' and 'soft' renderers work on amd64
