So why exactly does the ebuild need to die if etc-update hasn't been run?  That
is a *very* bad idea as it'll break world updates.  Do the ggz.modules files
ever need to be updated by the user?  If not, we could install them somewhere
that isn't under CONFIG_PROTECT, assuming they don't stomp all over each other,
that is.
Comment 3 Roger Light 2005-09-19 15:29:58 UTC
Each time a new set of games is installed ggz.modules is updated. If etc-update
is not run then when a second set of games is installed the first set would
effectively be removed.

I agree, it's totally nasty but was the way I could see it would work.

Version 0.0.12 comes out at the end of the month and removes the need for
ggz.eclass so I'd wait for that.

Heh... figures... I was about to go and clean up about 10 GGZ bugs... hehe...

I'll wait, sounds like a better solution anyway.  My idea was to find another
location to store the ggz.modules file than /etc, since it isn't "user editable"
configuration data, but rather installation-related metadata.  If the newer
versions resolve the issue better, I'll definitely wait for them instead.

Well, 0.0.12 has been out for a while, do I'm marking this as WONTFIX.
