When emerging a package using the games eclass, the following elog messages are displayed: * Remember, in order to play games, you have to * be in the 'games' group. * Just run 'gpasswd -a <USER> games', then have <USER> re-login.

These situations can be checked in the eclass as follows: if ! has_version "${PN}"; then See the tracker bug 440214 for more details. Reproducible: Always
