Description Maija Toivola 2003-08-10 07:13:01 UTC
tome-2.2.2 ebuild does not give write permissions to group for any of its files, which 
prevents users in games group from playing ToME. 
 
Workaround: 
cd /usr/share/games/tome/lib 
chmod -R g+w apex data save user 
 
This problem does not seem to appear in updating from a working old version of the 
ebuild. At least conversion from 2.1.2 to 2.2.2 works. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure you do not have tome installed and you belong to the games group. 
2. emerge tome 
3. Try to run it.  
Actual Results:  
It complained about not finding s_info.raw and exited. (s_info.raw and other *.raw files 
should get created at first startup, but they did not due to permissions.) A new window 
meant for ToME flickered into existence and quickly away again. 

Expected Results:  
Showed ToME title screen. 

This was on a newly installed Gentoo on which tome had never been emerged before. 
I had used the X useflag for tome and tried to start the game from Konsole in KDE.
