Description Kimmo Sundqvist 2004-02-12 00:47:21 UTC
Error: Main WAD file not found
You need either doom.wad, doom1.wad, doom2.wad,
tnt.wad, plutonia.wad, heretic.wad or heretic1.wad
from any sharware or commercial version of Doom or Heretic!
If you have one of those files, be sure it has the correct case
or use the -IWAD command line switch.

/usr/share/games/doomlegacy $ ls -l
total 5032
-rw-r-----    1 games    games     4196020 Feb  9 22:14 doom1.wad
-rw-r-----    1 games    games      951045 Feb  9 22:14 legacy.dat
/usr/share/games/doomlegacy $

I wonder if there is any way to give lsdldoom the path to search for legacy.dat,  if my system is failing somewhere, or if there is a way it's supposed to be run that I've not heard about.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge doomlegacy
2.run lsdldoom anywhere except /usr/share/games/doomlegacy/


Actual Results:  
Doomlegacy failed to run

Expected Results:  
It should have a configuration file for locating legacy.dat, or it should have
searched for legacy.dat in the correct location.

Comment 1 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-12 01:19:50 UTC
Looks like we patch the X version but not the sdl version.
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2004-07-20 19:22:17 UTC
fixed in 1.42
