Bug 111747 – quake2-data uses an incorrect directory on the data cd

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Ethan Burns 2005-11-06 16:57:04 UTC]

* Found CD #1 root at /mnt/cdrom
>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking q2-3.20-x86-full-ctf.exe to /usr/tmp/portage/quake2-data-3.20/work
>>> Source unpacked.
>>> Test phase [not enabled]: games-fps/quake2-data-3.20

>>> Install quake2-data-3.20 into /usr/tmp/portage/quake2-data-3.20/image/
category games-fps
install: cannot stat `/mnt/cdrom/baseq2/pak0.pak': No such file or directory

>>> this should probably use /mnt/cdrom/Install/Data/baseq2

!!! ERROR: games-fps/quake2-data-3.20 failed.
!!! Function src_install, Line 55, Exitcode 1
!!! couldnt grab pak0.pak
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. insert quake2 data cdrom
2. mount cdrom
3. emerge quake2-data

Actual Results:  
the above error

Expected Results:  
the quake2 data should be installed

I believe it is just using the wrong directory on the quake2 cdrom...
also export CD_ROOT does absolutely nothing so there's really no way for me to 
install this port

what kind of quake2 cd is it ?  there have been different releases of
quake2 over the years

also, post the output of `tree /mnt/cdrom` as an attachment

Ultimate Quake Edition, again... This patch fixes the problem for me.

tree /mnt/cdrom

And, for completeness sake, the tree.

The information from UncleOwen appears to be the same as mine, what do I do 
to apply your patch?  When I patch the ebuild in
/usr/portage/games-fps/quake2-data and try to emerge quake2-data I get a file
size error.  Is there a proper way to fix this?

[Comment 5 SpanKY 2005-11-07 19:32:15 UTC]

the pkg_setup in the patch had a typo but it pointed out that i broke support
for the original Quake2 when i updated the ebuild ...

i tossed in support for ctf/xatrix/rogue if the install media supports it

ive tested the new ebuild against the orig Quake2 cd and the Quake4 dvd, and i
added support for the ultimate quake collection based on your tree output, so
sync up and make sure it works for you please
