[gentoo-dev] app-games/heroes ebuild

[Dan Armak]

Hi,

Here's an ebuild for the great game of heroes (heroes.sourceforge.net), an 
ultra-advanced nibbles followup. (It's very resource-demanding. I've got a 
k6-2/500 & TNT2 w/ 32MB and 224 MB RAM and it's still not smooth!)

This is my 1st ebuild post, so I'm prepared for constructive criticism. In 
particular, should I post the digests?

Ebuild-specific notes:

1. heroes can use either sdl+sdl-mixer or libggi+libgii+libmikmod. The latter 
is the default. My ebuild forces SDL if it's in USE, otherwise libggi, and 
adjusts the config options & DEPEND accordingly.
I haven't actually buit with libggi, so someone should try that.

2. Something is wrong with the auto-downloading, it's probably a mistake of 
mine. If I use wget everything works: it tries ibiblio.org, doesn't find it, 
and goes to the server I put in SRC_URI. But, if I use prozilla then it tries 
something (it doesn't say what - just "connecting to server..."), says it 
can't find it (understandable if it's ibiblio.org), and goes right to 
ftpsearch - without my SRC_URI in the mirror list. What's wrong? Can you 
reproduce this behaviour?
