Example: games-board/cgoban2. I tried very hard to stay with the old, |
| 11 |
crufty Xlib based (so java free) predecessor cgoban which I used on |
| 12 |
Debian, but to make it usable at all its source needs to be patched, and |
| 13 |
in a Catch-22 the ebuild doesn't use EAPI 5 so patching is hacky in the |
| 14 |
extreme. |
