when starting vsinstall first after emerging vegastrike, it fails, because it looks for vegastrike files in /usr/local/share/vegastrike , but emerge put this at /usr/share/games/vegastrike Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge vegastrike 2. start vsinstall 3. Actual Results: vsinstall complains that it cannot find files under /usr/local/share/vegastrike Expected Results: vsinstall should run fine a workaround is to have a symlink from /usr/local/share/vegastrike to /usr/share/games/vegastrike , but it would be even better if emerge took care of the proper directory references.
You have stale files from a previous install. You need to clean out your home directory.
what would those be? I didn't have vegastrike installed before, this is the first time I have it on my machine. I only did: emerge vegastrike as root, than as a regular user, what happens is:: $ vsinstall cat: save.4.x.txt: No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/share/vegastrike/data/setup.config': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/share/vegastrike/data/.vegastrike/*.m3u': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/share/vegastrike/data/vegastrike.config': No such file or directory Unable to read from setup.config If you wish to have your own music edit ~/.vegastrike/*.m3u Each playlist represents a place or situation in Vega Strike what would be the stale files? I only found ~/.vegastrike/ , which I can remove, but the same happens: $ rm -rf .vegastrike/ $ vsinstall cat: save.4.x.txt: No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/share/vegastrike/data/setup.config': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/share/vegastrike/data/.vegastrike/*.m3u': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/share/vegastrike/data/vegastrike.config': No such file or directory Unable to read from setup.config If you wish to have your own music edit ~/.vegastrike/*.m3u Each playlist represents a place or situation in Vega Strike what other files should I clean?
Oh, right, that gets me everytime. Don't run vinstall. Also, be sure to search bugzilla for duplicate bugs before filing a new bug. Thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 43977 ***
oh, OK, I simly entered vegastrike into the search field, and the related bug did not come up: http://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&field0-0-0=product&type0-0-0=substring&value0-0-0=vegastrike&field0-0-1=component&type0-0-1=substring&value0-0-1=vegastrike&field0-0-2=short_desc&type0-0-2=substring&value0-0-2=vegastrike&field0-0-3=status_whiteboard&type0-0-3=substring&value0-0-3=vegastrike OTOH, there is a need to run vsinstall, because that's where I can set the resoltion for the game. when trying to select options from vslauncher, I get the following error: $ vslauncher Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x3d4)! and I can't set any options (vslauncher also refuses to accept any input afterwards...)
Closing to clean up after bugzilla upgrade. reopen if closed in error. Thanks.
