Description Ian Silvester 2020-05-24 02:19:26 UTC
Hi,

The DXX-Rebirth package has been near-unusable for some time (see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669212 and https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703090) because the current ebuild (0.59.100) only compiles against gcc 6.5.0.

This submission is an updated ebuild that targets a much more recent revision of the DXX-Rebirth codebase and hence works with current gcc (9.3.0 at the time of  submission). It is based on an ebuild contributed to the DXX-Rebirth project that has been tweaked to better suit Gentoo's ebuild guidelines.

It depends upon two new ebuilds (https://bugs.gentoo.org/724882 & https://bugs.gentoo.org/724884), which supply community-contributed content - a German localisation, higher resolution bitmaps and music generated from period-correct soundcard synthesizers.

This submission is made with the blessing of the current proxy maintainer for this package - Alexander Turenko - who tells me he no longer plays or supports the game, and is happy for me to pick up the mantle.

The ebuild is part of this Github pull request: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/15903
