port of game-data-packager to Fedora

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

My redhat/fedora skills were a bit rusty (1998-rusty),
so as an exercice I dediced to port to fedora 
the game-data-packager Debian native project I'm working on.

So far, so good, it's already mostly done.

https://github.com/a-detiste/game-data-packager/commits/fedora

That will provide Fedora recipes to automaticaly build noarch .rpm
for currently about 200 games; one of my goal is to cover 
all versions of all scummvm games.

It can also download shareware data for doom, quake, descent... games.

http://pkg-games.alioth.debian.org/game-data/

Of course it would be better to have real Fedora users that test this;
not only someone that run a minimal install on a container.
(chocolate-doom works over "ssh -X" !)

For example I already spotted that fedora "dynamite" package
is lacking id-shr-extract program; but "wolf4sdl" is also not packaged,
so this is not a problem.

https://sources.debian.net/src/dynamite/0.1.1-2/src/id-shr-extract.c/


Of course, I realize it could be against Fedora policy (it's also not in Debian proper,
but in contrib)...

There's also a handfull of DFSG games supported, like "Soltys" & "Dracie Historie";
and DreamWeb that is distributable.


Greets,

Alexandre Detiste
