Starting the game "Abuse" without a ~/.abuse directory works fine. The directory is created and the game runs just fine. Starting the game with the autogenerated ~/.abuse fails with the message: Unable to open filename art/dev.spe for requested item c_mouse1 The reason is that ~/.abuse/abuserc incorrectly lists datadir=/var/games/abuse instead of datadir=/usr/share/games/abuse Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge =games-action/abuse-0.7.1 2. Make sure the directory ~/.abuse does NOT exist 3. Run the game, quit and run it again.

Created attachment 162900 [details, diff] patch fixing configfile creation (using correct path now) works like charm now...
in portage. Thanks for the bug submission and patch. People will probably need to do: rm -rf ~/.abuse if they installed the previous version of the ebuild.
