Description Paul Bredbury 2006-06-16 03:34:07 UTC

The "quake1" ebuild should be renamed. Reasons:

* Being named "quake1" indicates that it's the first choice for the game engine, when in reality it's probably the *last* intended choice, as implied in bug #108045. There are far better Quake 1 engines available.

* It's keyworded "-*", as mentioned in bug #136966 - which only adds to a gamer's confusion.
