This is an ebuild I put together for hordes of the underdark. As mentioned in the ebuild bug for SoU, if someone could go over it, that would be great. Also, on my system, if you don't delete xp1patch.key or data/xp1patch.bif from /opt/nwn, like I modified the fixinstall script to do, the system would lock up to the point where I couldn't do anything. If someone can modify the ebuild so that it deletes those files, rendering that step unnecessary, that would be great...

sorry, wasn't entirely clear in my initial post. fixinstall won't delete the files itself, but it will tell you to delete them.
ok, one more update. nwn + sou + hotu is freezing randomly. until I can figure out why, this should probably be masked.
I have completely uninstalled/reinstalled nwn using the 1.62 ebuild, then manually installed SoU + HotU using the instructions on Bioware's site, rather than my ebuilds. Same problem. It's either a glitch on my system, or a problem with 1.65 and gentoo, as I haven't seen anything on either Bioware's site, or on the web in general about 1.65 causing these sorts of problems. The ebuild can likely be considered safe.

Created attachment 49147 [details] nwn-hotu-1.65.ebuild This ebuild is based on Nathan's but contains a few fixes: - linguas_fr etc are used to determine which language updates to download - cdrom_get_cds from the eutils class is used to grab files from CDROM - renames a couple of text files that conflict with those from games-rpg/nwn. - adds any bioware override files provided by games-rpg/nwn or games-rpg/nwn-sou to PROBLEM_FILES
Created attachment 49148 [details] nwn-hotu-1.65-fixinstall Updated fixinstall script to correct permissions of HotU-specific files.
OK... I have an experimental split ebuild that adds support for sou and hou to nwn. One thing I am noticing is the changed fixinstall scripts required. Anyway, I am marking this as a duplicate and would like for you guys to tets out the versions I have made. I'm not sure if I need to make adjustments to the fix install script or not, or even provide multiple fixinstall scripts based on USE. The ebuild for nwn-data should support both sou and hou perfectly (it does for me). Please follow the instructions in the bug and test the ebuilds for me, so I can get them unmasked as soon as possible. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 106789 ***
