Summary: Review request: gargoyle - multi-format interactive fiction interpreter https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=682544 Summary: Review request: gargoyle - multi-format interactive fiction interpreter Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: unspecified Component: Package Review AssignedTo: nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: ct.spammable@xxxxxxxxx QAContact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: notting@xxxxxxxxxx, fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx Estimated Hours: 0.0 Classification: Fedora Spec URL: http://carlolab.appspot.com/files/gargoyle.spec SRPM URL: http://carlolab.appspot.com/files/gargoyle-2010.1-2.fc14.src.rpm Description: --- Gargoyle is an interpreter for interactive fiction (text adventure) story files which supports all major formats. It puts special emphasis on excellent text display. See http://ifdb.tads.org/ and http://www.ifarchive.org/ for many free works. This package excludes the Alan 2, Alan 3 and Hugo interpreters due to licensing restrictions. --- Since this is my first package, I require a sponsor. Some further background: Gargoyle (http://ccxvii.net/gargoyle/) bundles interpreters for several interactive fiction story file formats, including Z-code, TADS and others. It uses the same subpixel text rendering presentation for all of these; it does not expose the UI for any of the bundled interpreters, but only the interpreter core. It's been around for a few years and is very popular in the Interactive Fiction community. It's already in several other distros: http://code.google.com/p/garglk/wiki/Packages The bundled interpreters have a variety of licenses. A couple don't have Fedora-approved licenses, so these had to be left out from the SRPM. The license situation may change in the future, so they may be included in a future version. I've also left out some bundled fonts with Fedora-incompatible licenses, and instead declared dependencies on linux-libertine-fonts and liberation-mono-fonts, which gargoyle is configured to use. I had previously submitted this to RPM Fusion because upstream gargoyle links against smpeg, but discovered that I could instead just leave out -lsmpeg from the link line; gargoyle would be unable to take advantage of it anyway, because it only uses SDL_sound directly, and the Fedora version of SDL_sound is configured without its optional MP3 support via smpeg. Very few interactive fiction games use sound at all, so this is not a big deal. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
