Hi,

From bug 233929, problem is solved in version 0.6.2.

To install version 0.6.3 I use "roslin" overlay, and it works for me.

Hi all!

Few weeks ago I reinstalled my desktop and now I want to play with
openttd but I wonder this package is masked.
I saw the version of this package int the portage is 0.5.3 but on the
openttd's website the latest stable version is 0.6.3.
So I want to ask: what is the problem whit this package?
Should I install from overlay? Which overlay?

Thank you for answers!

András

Hi,

Did you read these bugs?

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215776
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=233929

They answer at least partially to many of your questions. Old one is
blocked due to security reasons, new one has been under work and a
version is available from that bug, they took extra time since openttd
developers use some funky multi-platform configuration stuff of their
own making, etc.

Maybe you could settle for dosbox with the old TTD MS-DOS version
until they get everything sorted out with openttd's new version? :)
