I don't think I care to add the "DO WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT TO PUBLIC LICENSE" to portage so I'm going to pass on this game. Thanks for the bug report though.
What kind of fake, intolerant, biased and uninformed explanation is that? I haven't seen anyone complain about WindowMaker being in Gentoo. Fuck double standards bigots.
Thanks for proving the point... *grin*
For proving which point exactly? Wouldn't anyone be pretty annoyed if a single individual decided that Gentoo users would not enjoy a particular piece of software just because he does not like its license, while at the same time Gentoo already provides software under this very license? I could not care less about what Gentoo provides, but if I was the bug submitter, having spent time writing the ebuild and everything, I'd be quite pissed off to be treated like that.
As previously noted, WindowMaker, which is part of portage, is also partly distributed under the so-called "Do what the fuck you want public licence" (look at the COPYING.WTFPL tarball in its tarball). I suggest you remove WindowMaker from portage if you want to stay coherent. I've been using Gentoo for the past two years. I've always been thinking it was an open system and I'm not going to change that because some morron doesn't like a certain opensource licence. Linux has few good games, and monsterz definitively is one of them. Why should Gentoo developers should forbid users to play it while it's available on Debian and other distributions? I won't give it up on this. I've raised some helpful bugs here in the past, so you can try to blacklist my ip if you don't want any more bug reports but I've access to other hosts as well and I intend to continue to contribute to Gentoo as I love this distribution and I won't let anyone turn it into a fascist system.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but according to http://www.windowmaker.org/disclaimer.html - "Window Maker is
Correct me if I'm wrong, but according to http://www.windowmaker.org/disclaimer.html - "Window Maker is © [1997 - 2004] Alfredo Kojima and is distributed under the GNU GPL software license. All rights are reserved." I still think that this game should be in portage, there's no real reason that the license would be an issue.
In fact, WindowMaker *is* covered by the GPL-2 licence. But it's distributed with some artwork covered by the WTFPL licence. Hence the presence of the COPYING.WTFPL file in the tarball.
If you don't want to download the tarball, it's there: http://cvs.windowmaker.org/cvs.php/wm/COPYING.WTFPL
well i hate to break up the lovely like fest here, but i cleaned up the ebuild (path handling in previous ebuild was braindead / broken) and added to portage
Thanks a lot. Just a note about the license: it is not public domain, all authors retain their copyright on the work (except the music tune which was explicitely put in the public domain). If you need to put the WTFPL in a category, the most accurate would be BSD-like.
