gtk2hack is a gtk2 frontend to nethack Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 38117 [details] A makefile adopted for gentoo This package does not a 'configure' command, so I edited the makefile.
Anybody want to try their hand at writing an ebuild for this one?
Most of the work are done inside nethack ebuild, maybe more than a new ebuild it could be and gtk2 USE flag for nethack (gtk2hack includes nethack). Just some includes changes, some patches that needs to be applied for nethack are already on gtk2hack, etc.. etc.. Unfortunately I really dont like rogue-like role games so there is no enthusiasm from my part. :-| Sorry about that. Lets play FPS games! :-P
That sounds like a much better idea.
this doesnt need to be added to the current ebuild right ? this can be a sep package ?
The original request was for it to be a separate ebuild. However, it might be easier to make it simply a USE flag. I'll leave that up to you.
At this point in time, I'm opposed to hacking the nethack sources to integrate gtk2hack. Pester the Nethack development team into supporting gtk2 and we'll talk next release.

Is there still any interest in this? And, more importantly, does gtk2hack still work with current gtk versions? I personally don't care about graphical nethack frontends, so I won't look into this if nobody is interested in using it.
