Description Radek Podgorny 2003-05-03 09:03:49 UTC
This is the starting script for Quake3 - Navy Seals : Covert Ops.

cd /opt/quake3/
./quake3 +set fs_game seals

When I take a look into the /opt/quake3 dir, I can't see any "quake3" executable
:-( Only the quake3.x86. Creating a symlink repaired this but some newbie may
get confused...

Well, this happens when somebody changes the way an ebuild works without checking 
everything else ... Now whoever changed the ebuild to put the quake3 shell script into 
/usr/games/bin via dogamesbin should seriously consider reworking all the startscripts 
that assume to have the shell script in /opt/quake3 instaed of "somewhere". 
 
Please ppl, if you change something from how it originally worked by having a games 
eclass, this is all wonderful (i really mean this), but pls double check that everything 
works! Unmerge your packages and do a fresh install of every single package that 
depends on it and try _everything_ out, or ask whoever made the original ebuilds about 
any caveats. (AFAIK that would be me for quake3 and quake3-nsco) I haven't checked 
but some other ebuilds might suffer from the same problem (quake3-cpma, quake3-osp 
etc.) 
 
!Testing! ppl, it's all about testing!

yep, i broke it ... i didnt really properly test the quake3 stuff till
the last few days ... it should be nasty now though :)

it utilizes this new eclass:
