Proposal: Package The Loki Compatibility Libraries

Dear Fedora Gaming Special Interest Group,


I salute your efforts to make Fedora one of the best Linux systems for gaming. I have had an idea to make your support even better: package the Loki Compatibility Libraries. Granted this would only help users in running commercial games, such as the Loki Software and Hyperion game ports, but the libraries themselves are not proprietary and are simply older versions of free libraries that are needed by these ports to run repackaged. Case in point, on SuperGamer it appears to include these libraries by default. The Loki port of Kohan: Immortal Sovereigns runs beautifully out of the box, as does Hyperion's port of SiN. I have been fighting to get these to work on Fedora with very little success. I am not quite sure how SuperGamer packages them, but I would love to be able to type into my root terminal, say, "yum install loki-compat-libs" and suddenly have these games work. I would be very happy if someone looks into this.
