Our stable pygame (1.7) is still affected by bug 194932 (since the fix failed, bug #231250). 1.8.0 is affected by bug #223171, but that is fixed in 1.8.1. So, having =dev-python/pygame-1.8.1 stable would be preferable IMO. Ali, what do you think (Santiago agreed already)?
ping, python team -- please approve of the stabling or give a reason for its denial. Arches are not added yet.
Arches please test and stabilize =dev-python/pygame-1.8.1. Requested keywords are: alpha, amd64, hppa, ia64, ppc, sparc, x86. TIA.
ppc stable
Sparc stable.
amd64/x86 stable
Stable for HPPA.

Monsterz works OK with pygame-1.8.0 and pygame-1.7.1
Monsterz isn't keyworded on alpha, so I tested and stabilized it there.
ia64 stable
Created attachment 182077 [details, diff] Patch to fix monsterz crashing at start Found a discussion of this problem at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/monsterz/+bug/275492 The attached patch is from there. It appears that monsterz has a problem with using pygame 1.8.1. I have tested it on my amd64 system and it does fix the issue.
Oops, I just realized that I put this patch in the wrong place. . . Sorry about that. . .
The patch applies and monsterz still works. So I upgraded to pygame-1.8.1 and monsterz still works, so this fixes the problem. Once it becomes official for monsterz, I'll finish this bug off. Thanks for the help, Ferris
dev-python/pygame-1.9.1 will be stabilized in bug #287438.
