Bug 600856 – games-strategy/widelands-0.19: version bump

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Rafał Mużyło 2016-11-25 19:23:28 UTC]

The bump will need a bit work, some of it near trivial (SDL2 migration), some not quite so (the file ebuild uses for desktop entry was moved and the prefix vars were changed; the CFLAGS patch is also invalid now).

[Comment 1 Wojciech Myrda 2016-12-21 17:22:12 UTC]

Has anyone attempted to bump this ebuild?

Ebuild needs some work as one must run the game by typing in console full path "/usr/share/games/widelands/widelands" instead just "widelands". Due to that  desktop entry does not work.

Starting from the console game runs just fine so it is "good enough" to post here.

widelands-0.19-cxxflags.patch

Seems this patch is enough for game to use only user cxxflags from system.

This one uses wrapper from games.eclass to make it work. Until someone figures out better approach this one works like a charm just with the banned in EAPI=6 manner.

the last ebuild install executable file of the game to /usr/widelands
Seems weird.

[Comment 6 William Pettersson 2018-08-09 22:21:51 UTC]

Widelands has shuffled their build process around, it seems. They install binaries to the path "${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/." (see cmake/WlFunctions.cmake, line 279), rather than the default "bin". For now, if you want to fix this, set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to "/usr/bin" if you want the widelands executable in there, but it's a dirty hack imho. I'll try to raise upstream.
