Yes, however on the list of bug priorities this ranks much lower than other bugs for the time it takes to fix (rewriting the build system) don't you think ? No. Rewriting the build system means it is more accessible to everyone who doesn't use precompiled binaries: source distros, people testing di...

I have no good solution. I don't think anyone does. Portage's eventual migration to git should smooth over a few of these differences. But is a mere technology upgrade enough? We might want to contemplate a community "upgrade" as well. Depending on how it will be implemented it may improv...

that doesn't sound very well and is problematic with stripping binaries

a much easier hack is to sed the PHYSFS_mount lines in main.c

It's not working with parallel make, mostly because it needs to build things to build it. IIRC other gentoo packages dont support parallel build though I don't quite understand. That indicates either a bug in the build system or indicates that the build system is so crappy, that it doesn't let you ...

I have just tried building from hasufell's overlay but get the following errors. Building configurations... Running action 'gmake'... Generating Makefile... Generating build/TEngine.make... Generating build/physfs.make... Generating build/luadefault.make... Generating build/luasocket.make... Genera...

It seems the Tome4 developer has no interest in fixing any of those bugs.

Those ebuilds have a few issues including incorrect dependencies, segfaults at game start and some QA issues. We might add tome4 to the official gentoo tree if the situation improves See: http://forums.te4.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=38712 http://forums.te4.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=38713 http:/...

it seems that the patch from archlinux user repository fixes that (the bit that applies to src/fov/fov.c)

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/to/t ... me4.tar.gz

tome4 bundles a lot of libraries such as bzip2, zlib, luajit2, expat, physfs and more. There is no explicit information on what exact versions those are or if they are modified and if so which changes have been made. Everyone has to figure that out by himself which is also a problem security-wise. T...

It seems you cannot install the binary and the data files separately as one would do while following FHS which is standard in 95% of all unix distros more or less. It will cause failure to start the game, because there seems to be no way of telling it during compile time where those data files will ...

LDFLAGS only apply to libraries that come _after_ them in the linking command the generated makefiles all show the following: LINKCMD = $(CC) -o $(TARGET) $(OBJECTS) $(RESOURCES) $(ARCH) $(LIBS) $(LDFLAGS) which causes LDFLAGS to do nothing. If this is the standard form of premake generated makefile...

/opt/SDL-2.0 is not a standard directory where any linux distribution would install it, use the provided pkg-config file of SDL2, see: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config/ http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/d6a8fa507a45/sdl2.pc.in usage: # pkg-config --cflags sdl2 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/incl...

happens not always, but still reproducible
