The America's Army GameCD provided by www.gentoogames.com is great for people new to Linux (gaming) and/or Gentoo Linux. For the people who already enjoy the quality of Gentoo on their harddisk the GameCD is not always the best way to enjoy the game. For example; for me it's neccessary to set the game/sound/X- settings on every restart. It's also not possible to run other installed programs at the same time. Therefore I want to request an ebuild for America's Army in the portagetree. Unfortunately creating the ebuild myself is way out of my league. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Thanks to America's Army being officially released today by icculus.org, I am working on this ebuild as we speak.
Created attachment 13376 [details] Ebuild + files for America's Army At last, America's Army has come to Gentoo!
all i can say is this thing is a beast i reworked your ebuild ... tweaked the src_unpack part of it mostly ... i left out the .desktop thing because i'm working on a games.eclass addition that'll make shortcuts for gnome/kde/etc... automagically http://cvs.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gentoo-x86/app-games/americas-army/americas-army-170.ebuild?rev=1.1&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
