Description Alexander Jenisch 2004-06-25 09:16:35 UTC
About

GFSGL is a program that makes running and installing Games
(and other programs) easy under Linux. It can:
- Auto detect Installers in your cd-rom's (Native and Windows)
- Make use of autorun.inf/autorun.ini files
- Run both native and emulated games using either the command line UI or the Graphical UI
All features are available in both the command line UI and the graphical UI.

GFSGL will auto detect all options in it's configuration file.
It defaults to using winex3/cvswinex/winex/wine for emulating
but can be told to use any command. You may also select emulation command
on a per-game basis.
Your games are kept in a database at ~/.gfsgl/ along with your configuration files.

Submitting an ebuild would move this along more quickly.

This was exhausting......anyways, this ebuild works if someone would remove the
dependancy on hardcoding the version (the file is -RC1.tar.gz and portage wants
_rc1.tar.gz, too lazy to figure out how to fix that in bash)

No activity upstream since February 2006. It's apparently dead now.
Comment 6 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-09-30 17:25:31 UTC
sounds like WONTFIX in that case.
