From the homepage: 'The first stable release will be version 0.2. There is no fixed date, instead the release will happen when "it is ready".' Let me know when that is.
Quarry went 0.2.0 stable a little while back. https://mail.gna.org/public/quarry-announce/2006-11/msg00000.html

did you try that ebuild? It installs a bunch of stuff in /usr/share/games that doesn't belong there.

I assumed egamesconf puts the right things in the right places as I don't have any idea on where should game stuff be put in. So please point me to info about where thing should be placed so I can learn about this.
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/games/games-ebuild-howto.xml#doc_chap4 The variables tell you where our defaults are located. It should respect the variables, though, and install to wherever gets set. If egamesconf doesn't work, it's likely because of a busted Makefile.

Quarry doesn't "autodetect" gnugo; you have to add this to the GTP engines list in Quarry's preferences: /usr/games/bin/gnugo --mode gtp If you omit the --mode gtp, it will hang.
The website says this project is discontinued. It's not a candidate for portage in that case. Feel free to reopen if the project becomes alive again.
