I want to discuss Bugdom and Bugdom2 along with Nanosaur II, another Pangea game. Omar Polo ported Nanosaur2 last month, https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ports&m=167180883506465&w=2
I am able to play all 3 games on amd64. I have not tried the games on OpenBSD/macppc. (The games are from PowerPC Mac OS, but they need 3d acceleration, which is missing in OpenBSD on most macppc models.)

The CC BY-NC-SA is strange, but (in my opinion) does give enough permission for PERMIT_PACKAGE = Yes Some files have different licenses (WRKSRC/extern/Pomme/LICENSE.md in all 3 games), but the licenses look compatible to me. One of them is the GNU LGPL. CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 Section 3(b) "ShareAlike" says in item 3, | You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms or | conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological Measures to, | Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the rights granted under | the Adapter's License You apply. The different terms in the GNU LGPL only restrict the files under the LGPL. They don't "restrict the exercise of the rights granted under" the CC BY-NC-SA (which is the Adapter's License). Our license comment is, # CC-BY-NC SA 4.0 PERMIT_PACKAGE = Yes Maybe it should be this? # game: CC BY-NC-SA 4.0; extern/Pomme: MIT, LGPLv2.1, BSD, Boost PERMIT_PACKAGE = Yes The hyphens in CC BY-NC-SA match the spelling on https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/deed.en > > - Regarding the script files/bugdom: > > `cd /usr/local/lib/Bugdom` means that it won't be able to save any > > core files if run with a normal user (which it should!).

Omar Polo's games/nanosaur2 fixed core dumps by patching the game to load from ${TRUEPREFIX}/share/nanosaur2; see its patches/patch-Source_Boot_cpp and pre-configure target. I would like bugdom and bugdom2 to do the same. I suggest to install /usr/local/bin/Bugdom with uppercase B, so that we can install ${WRKSRC}/packaging/io.jor.bugdom.desktop without patching its Exec=Bugdom line. The package name bugdom, ${PREFIX}/share/bugdom, and ${PREFIX}/share/doc/bugdom can probably have lowercase b. Same with Bugdom2, bugdom2. I see no reason to use SUBST_CMD for io.jor.bugdom*.desktop, as I see nothing to substitute. Just use INSTALL_DATA. --gkoehler
