Glest 3.0.0 was relased and now has multiplayer Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 142374 [details] games-strategy/glest-3.0.0 I hate to answer to a 0-day request, but I wanted to test this game and the editor. Here is an ebuild to build glest 3.0.0.
Created attachment 142378 [details] games-strategy/glest-3.0.0 Picked the wrong ebuild :-/
Created attachment 142379 [details, diff] glest-3.0.0-unicode.patch This patch fixes the issue when the editor should be build. From what I found out gentoo always seems to build wxGTK using unicode but the editor required a non-unicode build of wxGTK. I will post this patch to the glest forum, too, so it hopefully get's merged upstream. Instructions taken from: http://www.wxwidgets.org/wiki/index.php/WxString
Created attachment 142398 [details] games-strategy/glest-3.0.0 Sigh. For some reasion dogamesbin glest_editor fails while into ${GAMES_BINDIR} dobin glest_editor works. No idea why.
Created attachment 142399 [details] games-strategy/glest-3.0.0 Multi-Sigh. GAMES_BINDIR -> GAMES_PREFIX
The name of the language packs was changed.
Created attachment 143494 [details] glest-3.0.0.ebuild Updated language stuff
1. USE-Flag "editor" is not fully working. You write in the ebuild: --- # Fails with wx enabled, bug #130011 --- But the Jamfile of glest containt: --- #### Editor #### if $(WX_AVAILABLE) = "yes" { SubDir TOP glest_map_editor ; --- 2. LINGUAS "hu" is not fully working. You have to change the line use linguas_hu && dolang magyar_${L_PV}.lng to use linguas_hu && dolang magyar_${PV}.lng 3. LINGUAS "pt_BR" is not fully working You have to change the line use linguas_pt_BR && dolang pt-br.lng to use linguas_pt_BR && dolang pt-BR.lng
version 3.1.0 is available.

(In reply to comment #11) > Created an attachment (id=143699) [edit] > games-strategy/glest-3.1.0 > > Better upload this before anyone else comes up with a worse one... > my last attachment was crap.. ignore it. i actually didn't know what a header was. about the last one, i might be confused but i think you should correct one thing: you are naming the file 'glest-3.1.0.ebuild' but inside the ebuild you are putting L_PV="3.0.0"
If you check what LP_V is for you find out it's for the translations of glest[1]. Since (from what I know) no strings were changed from 3.0.0 to 3.1.0 I used the translations from 3.0.0 because only hungarian was available as 3.1.0 while the others remained. [1] http://www.glest.org/files/contrib/translations
does this ebuild compile without issues?
Created attachment 144028 [details, diff] glest home patch for version 3.1.0 works for me. I was able to compile and run glest with it
I added a patch for glest 3.1.0 which fixes the home problem. I didn't add a new ebuild, because unicode is still broken. I was also unable to download the Italian language pack, so ebuild digest would fail. Both use flags unicode and editor disabled and english language selected works for me.
Glest 3.1.0 doesn't get past the opening screen for me with this error. This happens with or without unicode enabled. I had to modify the ebuild slightly as the URLs for the translations were wrong, and the unicode patch doesn't apply to 3.1.0 with nearly all hunks failing. This error occurs regardless of the wxwidgets libraries I compile against (2.6 ansi or 2.8 unicode) Could not open catalog: XercesMessages_en_US.cat or XercesMessages_en_US.cat Cannot load message domain Could not open catalog: XercesMessages_en_US.cat or XercesMessages_en_US.cat Cannot load message domain
glest-3.1.2 has been released and one should also create a games-strategy/glest-bin package for multiplayer.
I propose we hard-code the version string on language packs since these are user-contributed and will update with uneven frequency.
Created attachment 149003 [details] ebuild for glest-3.1.2 with this ebuild the game and editor compile on my machine. unfortunately I cannot fully test it since the game segfaults due to a bug in the newest ati drivers. could someone with a different graphics card please test it?

The glest-3.1.2 ebuild works great here with Nvidia. I only had to remove the "|| ( dev-util/jam dev-util/ftjam )" stuff from the ebuild. It gives me a blocking error and is obviously not needed.

(In reply to comment #16) > I was also unable to download the Italian language pack, so ebuild digest > would fail. I have the same problem... and I've got the solution! The ebuild says: "install: impossibile fare stat di `/var/tmp/portage/games-strategy/glest-3.1.2/work/italiano.lng': No such file or directory", but if you check this folder you find an "italian.lng" file. SOLUTION: edit the ebuild, search "italiano.lng" and replace it with "italian.lng" (tips: it's at the end of the ebuild). I'm sorry, but I don't know how to make a patch.
I write a ebuild to glest-3.1.2 with wrapper for call the glest in ${GAMEDATA_DIR}.

After using eselect wxwidgets and selecting unicode version everything works at least using emerge.
It works with me using gtk2-unicode-release-2.8. See: $ eselect wxwidgets list Available wxWidgets profiles: [1] gtk2-ansi-release-2.6 [2] gtk2-unicode-release-2.6 [3] gtk2-unicode-release-2.8 *
Created attachment 153885 [details] Ebuild to glest-3.1.2 Hi! New updates! * Add the wxGTK-2.6 to compile the glest_editor * Add the brazilian portuguese translation. It was made by me! :D * The download goes be direct at original mirror
Some things stopping this: - ebuild header needs to match /usr/portage/header.txt - should use wxwidgets.eclass (see games-board/blokish ebuild for an example) - game needs to write to ~/.glest instead of the data directory (without using a wrapper)
Why updates ebuild are not in the portage tree?
Created attachment 154021 [details] glest-3.1.2.ebuild Small check to prevent build failed if not exist the editor (maybe a post message with the instructions to select the proper wxwidget version can help)
I'm working on ebuild. I solved the question about wxwidgets, ebuild header and I am still writing the patch to glest. Thanks Fabio Bonfante. Your alteration is valid. :)
Created attachment 154483 [details] Ebuild to glest-3.1.2 I finished the ebuild with all request of Tristan Heaven. - Cleanup in ebuild - Header is ok - Ebuild is using wxwidgets eclass - Now, glest saves the files in $HOME/.glest. Do not necessary special permissions at /usr/share/games/glest.
Created attachment 154487 [details] Path for ability the glest saves the files in $HOME/.glest Ok, now is not necessary use glest wrapper. :)
the new ebuild works fine for me. since ati-drivers-8.493 also the segfaults due to a problem in the ati driver are fixed. it might be good to set the ati-drivers below that version as blocking glest (this also affects glest 2.x). however, I liked the editor useflag, that was in a previous version of the 3.1.2 ebuild, since not everybody needs the editor and having a useflag for it supports the gentoo idea of being modular and "giving you the choice" (gentoo manual ;-). enjoy
Created attachment 155731 [details] ebuild for glest-3.1.2 for the lazy people just untar this into your portage overlay dir (default is /usr/local/portage) and type emerge glest enjoy ;-) the game is playable still has some glitches, though: some languages are not properly installed process not terminating on my system you have been warned
Very good job Till Korten with your tar.gz! :D Exist a problem with editor useflag, because the glest-source-3.1.2 doesn't offer option to compile without editor. :(
thanks Michel, glad I could help ;-D The useflag makes no sense, if there is no corresponding flag in the makefile anymore of course... I noticed something else, though: for some reason the german language pack was not installed by the ebuild, even though it detected the german lingua properly during emerge -av glest. However it installed english and spanish even though spanish is not in my linguas. Maybe you know what went wrong? Thanks for this nice ebuild Michel!

Only russian, brazilian portuguese and hungrian contributions are on 3.1.2 version. See the link: http://www.glest.org/files/contrib/translations. There are the translation contributions. Why don't you create the german translation to 3.1.2 version? Is very simple.

Version 3.2.1 is now in portage
I have installed last version (3.1.2) and seems to run fine, but cannot join to games created by others (it just doesn't react to the "join game" button). In the command line i get the fellowing message: Couldn't process event: Value not found in propertyMap: ServerIp, loaded from: glest.ini Strange thing is that the binary i downloaded from the glest page works fine (and as far as i have read, differently compiled binaries might not be compatible for network play,, so it seems that the only way to play online is to install the binary).
