the cgoban2 client in the portage tree is still version 2.6.12. This version is not compatible to the KGS server anymore, so it is not possible to play on KGS using the cgoban2 client. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run cgoban2 2. login or click on the Guest button Actual Results: error message Expected Results: log into kgs The newest version of cgoban2 is v3.3.22 and can be downloaded under http://goserver.gokgs.com/javaBin-3.3.22/cgoban.jar.
Created attachment 171909 [details] hacky ebuild for new version Just a fast fix, perhaps not good style. I update the ebuild to fetch the jar form gokgs.com. Because the jar has to be installed without being unpacked, I put in an empty src_unpack method and changed the doins line to directly install the downloaded jar.
cgoban2 is in the tree because it's still nice for pbem and local games. There's no reason to remove it just because it doesn't work with kgs anymore.
