------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-22-09 06:45 UTC ------- I would consider this one "fixed" since I removed Enemy Territory from portage. I made a backup of the ebuilds (with modifications that I never commited) in case something changes in the future. I will continue to work on this issue in hopes of finding a resolution that is better for our users.

I get the impression from this posting that the developers of "Enemy Territory" are requesting significant changes to Gentoo's ebuild for this game, which may not be practical. The impression I get is that ID games require that no changes be made to their installers, and that their installer allows the user to choose where in the filesystem files are located; this makes package-management via Portage impossible. If this is not the case, then I apologise - I'm sure one of the devs will step up & correct me.
I see the very bottom of this posting says:

I guess more details will become clear shortly.
