Created attachment 56847 [details] games-strategy/gwp-0.3.6 -- Initial ebuild for Gnome WarPad This is a "works for me" ebuild for games-strategy/gwp
Did you look at where this ebuild installs files? It still needs more work to have the install put things in the right places.
replacing "make install" with "egamesinstall" should do the trick (unable to test, since it does not build with gcc4)
gcc 4? Man... you've got some big ones.... big brass ones... hrrrm... this is a gnome thingy... being a gnome whore, I should probably test this one out... added to my TODO
Created attachment 58092 [details] games-strategy/gwp/gwp-0.3.6.ebuild Well, it builds and seems to run, but knowing nothing about the game, I can't say for sure whether it is working or not. Anyone?

It compiles and runs fine here. No errors.
I renamed the ebuild to gwp-0.4.0.ebuild and it emerged and worked fine too.
Created attachment 81296 [details] New version and gcc-4.1 patch
Created attachment 81297 [details, diff] the gcc-4.1 patch, thanks ChrisWhite
Okay, I built and tested this on my ~ppc system (G3 Powerbook), and as far as I can tell it works. I wasn't able to go in-game because I've never played this type of game before. But I can confirm it working on ppc.
Working here on x86 as well
works here on x86 (opteron with x86 userland/kernel, gcc 3.4.6-r1)
Added to CVS (finally)...
