Description Sven B. 2016-01-22 14:39:36 UTC
[ebuild   R   ~] games-emulation/ppsspp-1.1.1::gentoo  USE="sdl -qt4 -qt5"

The supplied ppsspp.desktop file points to /usr/games/bin/ppsspp while the binary is installed in: 

~]# which ppsspp
/usr/bin/ppsspp

I have not tested any other versions(qt5, qt4 or <1.1.1) of the package.

@proxy-maint, the maintainer does not appear to have a bugzilla account registered.
Comment 2 Patrice Clement gentoo-dev 2016-01-26 15:03:58 UTC
I'll take it on cause I helped merge the initial commit.

RobinDX, thank you for your work. Could you please enlighten us as to why you feel compelled to send a PR every time you work on the ebuild? Is there a reason?

I'm not accustomed to use git right now.
I'm learning how to use it.

I am the Lead of the proxy-maint project. monsieurp is an active and supportive member who is a devleoper.
I can safely say that the use of input and feedback via COmments vis either bugzilla is cumbersome, exasperating and therefore quite inefficient in the pursuit of ebuild writing and therefore arrival at the goal(s) of this bug.

Pleas join in irc @ #gentoo-proxy-maint and you will fast see this take some rapid progress.

Hmm, i don't see any difference (except the elog message about games) for

[ebuild   R   ] games-emulation/ppsspp-1.1.1-r1::gentoo  USE="sdl -qt4 -qt5"

at the very least the sdl version is still being installed in /usr/bin/ppsspp with root:root. Again, i haven't tested any other versions.

Is it possible to use the games.eclass with this ebuild for consistency purposes?

Ok, no worries. git does take some time to get used to. You're getting there! :)

Yeah. It would make sense. Maybe Robin could help here.
