9 The new ebuild was really easy - as i have said previously just change
10 the name of the file from laby-1.0.2.ebuild to laby-1.0.3.ebuild.
11
12 However I have taken the opportunity to try and add an icon and a
13 desktop file [1], but the latter is giving some errors. I have posted a
14 question to the developer list and when i have fixed whatever I did
15 wrong i will post again.
16
17 I also found a nice little games ebuild writing howto which tells me I
18 have made a few stylistic errors. I'll improve as I go hopefully!

21 I have discovered that portage has some nice little functions like
22 these:
23
24 newicon ${WORKDIR}/${PN}_${PV}/laby.xpm ${PN}.xpm
25
26 (puts the file $WORKDIR/laby_1.0.3/laby.xpm into
27 /usr/share/pixmaps/laby.xpm)
28
29 make_desktop_entry laby "Lost Labyrinth" ${PN}.xpm "Game;RolePlaying;"
30
31 (makes a desktop file in /usr/share/applications with executable=laby,
32 icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/laby.xpm Type=Application, Categories-
33 Application;Game;Roleplaying Name=Lost Labyrinth)
