does games still maintain this package?
(In reply to Jonas Stein from comment #1) > does games still maintain this package? Only so many hours in the day, man. I've been trying to bump one other game for about two weeks now.
Created attachment 711015 [details] mekanix-080_alpha20191213.ebuild Had a partial look at this package (to build from source), leaving something behind in case someone want to finish (otherwise, last rites). Upstream released a 0.80-alpha (as "2019-12-13") which isn't "too" bad, adds allegro:5 support and works on ~amd64 (current 2021-05-07 snapshot hasn't changed much since the alpha release). Attached ebuild makes a mostly-normal-looking installation but is not usable (see notes inside). Paths shouldn't be that bad to fix, but with other issues made me want to back away. Considered 0.73 with allegro:0 to see if fixes some issues, but it has bundled libraries, 32bit remnants, and greets by ignoring CFLAGS for -march=pentium -O6 (six!) -ffast-math -funroll-all-loops
