Description Jimmy Rosen 2008-10-30 18:17:04 UTC
Funguloids ebuild is not in portage base, I found the ebuild on the net, I believe available also from "roslin" overlay. I did not know where to file bug report so I filed here anyway. I apologize if this is seen as spamming the bugzilla.

funguloids-1.06 ebuild (in "roslin" overlay I believe): 
http://neuromancer.openbsd.pl/~lazy_bum/gentoo/overlay/games-arcade/funguloids/
requires a patch: 
http://funguloids.sourceforge.net/size_chunks_reverse.patch
to be applied to the source before compilation when built against ogre >= 1.4.6, otherwise the game will die on launch.

The patch changes the parameter order in
file: mpakogre.cpp
function: MPakDataStream::read

-	return fread(buf, count, 1, mFileHandle);
+	return fread(buf, 1, count, mFileHandle);

After making the changes to the file mpakogre.cpp and rebuilding the manifest funguloids-1.06 ebuild installs and the game runs with no problems for ogre-1.4.9.
