FakeNES (Nintendo NES emulator) can support ROMs stored into compressed ZIP files. The ebuild has no option for enabling this feature (no flags or anything). If yoy compile FakeNES from the sourcefile available in their homepage you can enable Zlib support and open ZIP files. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FakeNES 2. Try to open a ZIP file including his name in the command line 3. Alternatively try to load a ZIP file from the "Load ROM" menu. Actual Results: The "load *.zip" doesn't appear in the "Load ROM" menu. If you try to open a ZIP file from the command line, the program will return a "unknown ROM format" and exit. Expected Results: Loaded the ZIP and started emulating the ROM inside, as the 3.0.1 version I downloaded from the homepage does. To compile the sources I had to download the zipped source files from the FakeNES WIP homepage, but also a build package. Also had to run "Autoconf" as the "Configure" files were outdated. The Zlib support was automatically enabled.
This seems to be supported via the zlib USE flag in the 0.3.0 ebuild. Does it not work for you?
I dont know if the zlib USE flag works for other packages. I added it to my make.conf and did etc-update. Also used the USE="zlib". None of both enable a zlib flag: max root # USE="zlib" emerge -pv fakenes These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

Ok, the problem here is that you need fakenes 0.3.0 for zip file support but fakenes isn't stable yet for x86 and you don't have ~x86 in your ACCEPT_KEYWORDS. If you want to run the unstable version of fakenes you need to merge it like this: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge fakenes This will install the unstable version of allegro that 0.3.0 needs and then install the unstable version of fakenes. You'll probably want to look into package.keywords from man portage. There's a lot of other helpful information in there as well. Since this isn't really a bug, but rather a misunderstanding of how keywording works I'll mark this bug INVALID.
I apologize for opening a bug that really wasnt. Thanx a lot, Mr. Bones.
