 Posted: Sat Dec 01, 2007 2:03 am Post subject: Vega Strike |
 |
|
Hi,
I recently found the game Vega Strike which i like the sound of.
After finding out it's not in portage i did a bit of web hunting.
I found an overlay called roslin.
I don't know if this overlay is popular - i'm new to linux gaming (except for tremulous)
but when i tried to emerge vegastrie it got the following error:
| Code: |
>>> Install vegastrike-9999 into /var/tmp/portage/games-action/vegastrike-9999/image/ category games-action
cp: cannot stat `vegastrike/soundserver': No such file or directory
*
* ERROR: games-action/vegastrike-9999 failed.
* Call stack:
* ebuild.sh, line 1735: Called dyn_install
* ebuild.sh, line 966: Called qa_call 'src_install'
* ebuild.sh, line 35: Called src_install
* environment, line 2651: Called die
* The specific snippet of code:
* cp -rf vegastrike/soundserver data4.x/bin/ || diefunc "$FUNCNAME" "$LINENO" "$?" "cp failed";
* The die message:
* cp failed
*
* If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.
* A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/games-action/vegastrike-9999/temp/build.log'.
* This ebuild is from an overlay: '/usr/local/portage/layman/roslin/'
|
Can anyone help me out wid this?
I don't know why it failed.
cp: cannot stat `vegastrike/soundserver': No such file or directory
humm - why not?
Cheers |

I am not able to find the url for the roslin overlay. Can you provide it please. I've tried the vegastrike-9999.ebuild from https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65084 but it keeps failing with -

I've solved that problem with a new ebuild you can find in that bug. Unfortunately, I've ran into an access violation issue:
| Code: | ACCESS DENIED open_wr: /usr/games/bin/vsinstall
cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/games/bin/vsinstall': Permission denied
|
Anyone knows how to handle game installations on Gentoo?
[EDIT] Commenting the line in the ebuild where /usr/games/bin/vsinstall is mentioned makes it install cleanly, but the program can't find the data directory (which is installed correctly in /usr/share/games/vegastrike/data). Someone will need to patch this one...

Time for bump. Anyone has working ebuild for 0.5.1-r1?
Prefferably the gentoo way, from source  |

you may install unvanquished from hasufells overlay. check this forum for unvanquished.
it is the successor of tremulous, still in alpha but playable when you have decent hardware. |

best chances when you run in a vm a 5 years old gnu linux. i doubt it runs well, you will run into many bugs issues with a recent box. |

Look into the SVN repo. There are commits from august this year, so it is not dead at all.

Another bump.
I tried to compile vegastrike from SVN and here is where I got:
http://wiki.vega-strike.org/HowTo:Compile_from_SVN_on_Linux <-- wiki
wiki says there are 2 ways to compile it. Unfortunately I can't see files required by autotools in vegastrike repo (no configure, no stuff needed for creating configure, no bootstrap script suggested at wiki). Autotools was deprecated anyway, so it seems it has been abandoned and wiki is outdated there.
Second way is going with cmake. That one appears to work fine at the begining, but cmake eventualy freaks out on ffmpeg_init.cpp file
| Code: | $ make

Error messages suggest syntax error, but I have a feeling it would be too easy.
Snippet of code looks like this:
| Code: | //

//

#include "config.h"
#include "ffmpeg_init.h"
#include <string.h>
#include <utility>

#define BUFFER_SIZE 128*(1<<10)
#ifndef ENOENT
#define ENOENT 2
#endif
/*

#endif
#endif
using namespace VSFileSystem;
[b]extern "C" int _url_open( URLContext *h, const char *filename, int flags ) // line 39, above errors refer here
{[/b]
if (strncmp( filename, "vsfile:", 7 ) != 0)
return AVERROR( ENOENT );
const char *type = strchr( filename+7, '|' );
std::string path( filename+7, type ? type-filename-7 : strlen( filename+7 ) );
VSFileType vstype = ( (type && *type) ? (VSFileType) atoi( type+1 ) : VideoFile);
VSFile *f = new VSFile();
if (f->OpenReadOnly( path, vstype ) > Ok) {
delete f;
return AVERROR( ENOENT );
} else {
h->priv_data = f;
return 0;
}
}

Any ideas what can cause such a behaviour? I'm gonna try to cheat it a bit, but maybe someone experienced with C would spot the problem |

| I don't know, either, but I would like very much to play an updated version of Privateer. I have even been playing the original in DOSBox. |
