#42037: gnome-games: port outdated, replaced by new individual GNOME packages,
maintainers wanted.
----------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: devans@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1
Keywords: | Port: gnome-games
----------------------+--------------------------------
gnome-games is outdated and has not been updated since GNOME 3.6. In the
current GNOME 3.10 distribution, it has been replaced by individual
packages for the games that have been carried forward. This is a good
opportunity for developers wanting to contribute to MacPorts' GNOME3
coverage by contributing one or more of these missing ports.
Games provided by the current gnome-games port are
{{{
glines
gnect
gnobots2 (replaced by gnome-robots)
gnomine (replaced by gnome-mines)
gnotravex (replaced by gnome-tetravex)
gnotski (replaced by gnome-klotski)
gtali (replaced by tali)
iagno (replaced by iagno)
}}}
Packages provided in the current GNOME 3.10 distribution are
{{{
aisleriot
five-or-more
four-in-a-row
gnome-chess
gnome-klotski
gnome-mahjongg
gnome-mines
gnome-nibbles (gnibbles disabled in current gnome-games port)
gnome-robots
gnome-sudoku (disabled in current gnome-games port)
gnome-tetravex
iagno
lightsoff
quadrapassel (disabled in current gnome-games port)
tali
}}}
The following games are obsolete, are not provided by GNOME 3.10 and will
disappear when gnome-games is fully replaced
{{{
glines
gnect
}}}
If you are interested in responding to this request, I suggest the
following procedure
* Indicate your intent in a comment to this ticket
* Create a new port for your submission.
* To prevent a conflict, modify the existing gnome-games port to disable
building of any outdated equivalent of your port, add your port in
depends_run and revbump.
* Modify the existing gnome3-apps port by moving your port from the
commented list of unported packages to depends_lib and revbump.
If you don't have commit privileges you can post your new Portfiles here
for review and committal. Otherwise, post a comment here when you have
completed the above steps.
Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions and thanks for any
help you can provide.
