wesnoth-9999.ebuild

Attached live ebuilds for 1.10, 1.12 and master branches for the people impatient for new versions. Please, consider for inclusion in the main tree.

Note:
- Wesnoth repository takes around 2GB of disk space.
- The preferences are set to different location from stable release.
- These ebuilds have the same feature set as in-tree version.
- Search http://gpo.zugaina.org/ for overlays with beta and live ebuilds.

live ebuilds are a pain to maintain

it's easy to do that in an overlay. I accept pull requests for live ebuilds in my overlay, but I don't compile them every day.
