Description Gregg Casillo 2004-07-28 23:48:31 UTC 
I try to emerge lgeneral-1.2_beta2, but get this message:

make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/lgeneral-1.2_beta2/work/lgeneral-1.2beta-2'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/lgeneral-1.2_beta2/work/lgeneral-1.2beta-2'

!!! ERROR: games-strategy/lgeneral-1.2_beta2 failed.
!!! Function src_install, Line 50, Exitcode 139
!!! Failed to generate scenario data.

Something about the ebuild is borked, no?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Comment 1 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-29 00:45:56 UTC 
Yeah, you have to merge it from X right now.  I've notified the upstream
author about this issue.
Comment 2 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-08 04:58:45 UTC 
upstream isn't really interested in fixing this it seems.

What do you mean when you say, "Yeah, you have to merge it from X right now." I am logged in as a non-root user in KDE. From Konsole, I su to root then run "emerge lgeneral." I am running xorg-x11-6.8.0-r3.

Comment 6 Petr Baudis 2005-11-08 16:14:34 UTC 
This is seriously broken, since even with sandbox it meddles with framebuffer
and svga, causing the system to CRASH when emerging from framebuffer console and
being in X in the meanwhile. It should at least produce a big fat warning about
this before emerging.
Comment 7 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-11-08 17:27:18 UTC 
it depends on what your libsdl supports actually ... lgenerals will test all
video drivers that are built into it which *may* include svga/fb/X/directfb/etc...
Comment 8 Petr Baudis 2005-11-09 00:13:51 UTC 
Why does it test them?
