ADOM (Ancient Domains of Mystery) is a rogue-like game, very similar to nethack. Unfortunately it is not open-source and has its own license which allows redistribution. The ebuild sets up a global directory to hold the scores file in /usr/share/adom. It also makes the adom binary setgid for group games so that it can write in that directory. A configuration file is put in /etc that points adom to the global data directory used. I install in /opt/adom/bin, because it is a binary-only distribution, but crete a symbolic link in /usr/bin, because the one binary seems not important enough to add yet another directory to the path in /etc/env.d. The build should be placed in app-games/adom.

I've noticed that this ebuild has been in an unassigned status for 4 months or so. I've tested this ebuild and it works great, any chance of it being placed in the portage tree? Thanks!
added to cvs with games.eclass support ... thanks for the game ;)
