Please add the XLink Kai program to portage. XLink Kai is a program that you run on your PC or Macintosh that allows you to play system-link / LAN-enabled games for your XBox, Playstation 2, Gamecube and PSP. The software is referred to as what is known as a 'tunnelling' application. There are various other single-console tunnelling applications available, but XLink remains the only one to support all 3 major consoles... http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/ In particular init.d support would be very helpful. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Expected Results: Ebuild for Xlink
Successfully compiled version 7.0.0.5, the recipe is: * XLink Kai 7.0.0.5 (source code) http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/binary/7005base.zip * SocketCC Class Library Version 1.38 (Released 11th Apr 2003) http://www.ctie.monash.edu.au/SocketCC/socketcc_1_38.tgz * PThreadCC Class Library Version 1.11 (Released 11th Apr 2003) http://www.ctie.monash.edu.au/SocketCC/pthreadcc_1_11.tgz * libPCAP (A system-independent library for user-level network packet capture) http://www.tcpdump.org/release/libpcap-0.8.3.tar.gz Also note that Xlink Kai do not work without a fronted... * libKaUI (encapsulates the networking part of the XLink KAI protocol in simple functions) http://unc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/libkaiui/libkaiui-0.1.tar.bz2 * gKaUI (GTK+ frontend) http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/libkaiui/gkaiui/ * KaiUIncurses frontend http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/libkaiui/ncurses_ui/ It's needed to contact upstream requesting an "snapshot" or a release in order to not have a cvs ebuild.

Doesn't Xlink Kai Support (XBox, Playstation 2, Gamecube and PSP) http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/faq.php# 1.1 ebuild should reflect info
Created attachment 74756 [details] Kaid 7.0.0.6 ebuild
Wouldn't it be better to create 2 ebuilds for PThreadCC and SocketCC and make the kaid (source) ebuild dependend on these (libpcap is already in portage). btw: source for version 7.0.7 is released: http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/binary/kaid-7.0.0.7-src.tar.gz binary: http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/binary/kaid-7.0.0.7-linux-x86.tar.gz I might have a look into it, as soon as i have some spare time.
