The only problem is that it needs /usr/games/lib64 in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. After fixing this the game appears to be running fine
It doesn't compile for me, here's the emerge output: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -DWITH_SOUND -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_TABLET_SUPPORT -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -Imoc/ -o obj/campaign.o campaign.cpp In file included from fight.cpp:51: ../libClient/attalSound.h:38:21: SDL/SDL.h: No such file or directory ../libClient/attalSound.h:39:27: SDL/SDL_mixer.h: No such file or directory In file included from fight.cpp:51: ../libClient/attalSound.h:86: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `Mix_Music' with no type ../libClient/attalSound.h:86: error: expected `;' before '*' token ../libClient/attalSound.h:87: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `Mix_Chunk' with no type ../libClient/attalSound.h:87: error: expected `;' before '*' token make[1]: *** [obj/fight.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/attal-0.9.4/work/attal-src-0.9.4/libFight' make: *** [sub-libFight] Error 2 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -DWITH_SOUND -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_TABLET_SUPPORT -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -Imoc/ -o obj/fightAnalyst.o fightAnalyst.cpp x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -DWITH_SOUND -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_TABLET_SUPPORT -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -Imoc/ -o obj/fightEngine.o fightEngine.cpp x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -DWITH_SOUND -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_TABLET_SUPPORT -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -Imoc/ -o obj/gameData.o gameData.cpp x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -DWITH_SOUND -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_TABLET_SUPPORT -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -Imoc/ -o obj/parser.o parser.cpp x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -DWITH_SOUND -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_TABLET_SUPPORT -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -Imoc/ -o obj/questManager.o questManager.cpp /usr/qt/3/bin/moc attalServer.h -o moc/moc_attalServer.cpp /usr/qt/3/bin/moc fightEngine.h -o moc/moc_fightEngine.cpp x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -DWITH_SOUND -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_TABLET_SUPPORT -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -Imoc/ -o obj/moc_attalServer.o moc/moc_attalServer.cpp x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -fPIC -DWITH_SOUND -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_SHARED -DQT_TABLET_SUPPORT -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -Imoc/ -o obj/moc_fightEngine.o moc/moc_fightEngine.cpp test -d ../ || mkdir -p ../ rm -f libAttalServer.so.6.0.0 libAttalServer.so libAttalServer.so.6 libAttalServer.so.6.0 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -shared -Wl,-soname,libAttalServer.so.6 -o libAttalServer.so.6.0.0 obj/attalServer.o obj/campaign.o obj/fightAnalyst.o obj/fightEngine.o obj/gameData.o obj/parser.o obj/questManager.o obj/moc_attalServer.o obj/moc_fightEngine.o -L/usr/qt/3/lib64 -L.. -lAttalCommon -lqt-mt ln -s libAttalServer.so.6.0.0 libAttalServer.so ln -s libAttalServer.so.6.0.0 libAttalServer.so.6 ln -s libAttalServer.so.6.0.0 libAttalServer.so.6.0 rm -f ../libAttalServer.so.6.0.0 rm -f ../libAttalServer.so rm -f ../libAttalServer.so.6 rm -f ../libAttalServer.so.6.0 mv -f libAttalServer.so.6.0.0 libAttalServer.so libAttalServer.so.6 libAttalServer.so.6.0 ../ make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/attal-0.9.4/work/attal-src-0.9.4/libServer' !!!

This would mean that it requires media-libs/libsdl - I didn't notice because I had it already installed
There's more to this than meets the eye. /usr/games/lib64 seems to be the right place to install the libraries, but it is not included in LDPATH. I have files another bug on this (bug 137997) which will need to be resolved before attal can enter ~amd64. There are also two dependencies missing, namely media-libs/libsdl and media-libs/sdl-mixer. We will need to wait for the lib64 issue to be sorted out before this package can be added to ~amd64.
This would be a 'global' problem - I mean the missing deps. Maybe it should be fixed sooner regardless of the LDPATH bug? Seeing SpanKYs response I wouldn't count for a fast solution - multilib has many entries in the bugzilla and the discussion gets usually quite heated...
You're right about that, I just opened bug 138461 to adress the missing dependencies in attal 0.9.4 and 0.9.4.
fixed in cvs
