After copying everything to a temporary folder, extracting it with "unshield -d data_out data1.cab" is not possible to emerge it using "CD_ROOT=xyt/data_out emerge -O ut2004-data". ut2004-data-3186-r3.ebuild, line 81: Called unpack_makeself 'xyz/ut2004/data_out//linux-installer.sh' Be carefull. It takes a lot of disk space just to extract everything. 3GB for cab files (maybe there is a a trick how you can tell unshield to search the other data?.cab files and data1.hdr in the other directories - symlinks in the extract directory would be a good idea), 6GB for extracted data and a lot of GB while emerging.

Output of "unshield l data1.cab"
This must be a re-issue of ut2004 (German-only?) using a totally different format. With my ut2004 DVD (English): # find /media/cdrecorder/ -name \*.cab /media/cdrecorder/CD6/DirectX9/BDA.cab /media/cdrecorder/CD6/DirectX9/BDANT.cab /media/cdrecorder/CD6/DirectX9/BDAXP.cab /media/cdrecorder/CD6/DirectX9/DirectX.cab /media/cdrecorder/CD6/DirectX9/dxnt.cab # find /media/cdrecorder/ -name \*.uz2 | wc -l 803 The English version of the game doesn't use .cab files. Without the linux-installer.sh, you're pretty well SOL, as the ebuilds require files from within that file archive. Looking at the page that you listed, it doesn't say it even supports Linux. Unfortunately, I cannot support this without major modifications to the ebuild. If you're willing to write a patch for it, then I'll add it, otherwise, I'm marking this as CANTFIX. This is the "normal" Midway DVD. It's fixed in bug #159164 :) |
