Super Tux Kart 1.2 RC1 has been released for quite a while already, and now the definitive 1.2 version has been released, with SDL support and not depending on fribidi anymore. As such, I would like you to include this newest version to the Gentoo repository. I know for sure that many people enjoy this game and it would be much appreciated. I also stumbled upon other Gentoo users during online play. They will like the increased smoothness and reliability. I'm sending attached an ebuild for 1.2 that I wrote myself. I basically edited the ebuild for the 1.1 version that is already present on the Gentoo repository. As I'm not very experienced at writing and editing ebuilds, I would like you to take a closer look at it before including it on the Portage tree. Kind regards, Concerned gamer and Gentoo user
I'll look at this if nobody beats me to it. Thank you!

Seems to work OK here. Please let me know if you have any issues/comments.
Thank you very much for the update. However, one of the devs mentioned that they are no longer using fribidi and asked if you could please remove this USE flag to more closely reflect their development status. With kind regards, Concerned gamer and Gentoo user

I hadn't noticed it because it wasn't actually doing anything anyway (the fribidi dep was unconditional and not passed to the build system). There's no need to be a concerned gamer, and I kind of figured you were a Gentoo user given you're here ;)
