Gentoo overlay for openmw

[edmondo]

Since I've a bit of time and I want to emerge openmw in my gentoo linux, I started an unofficial overlay with the needed ebuilds. Right now just bullet 2.80. In the next days I will put the rest.

Here the github link:
https://github.com/edmondo/openmw-overlay

Pushed two new ebuild in repository:
+ ogre 1.8rc1
+ MyGUI 3.2.0

Audiere will follow tomorrow. The wxPlayer example made me a bit crazy, so I will drop it. I don't think it's needed for openmw (let me know if you need it).

Audiere is also not necessary if you have mpg123, at least we do not use Audiere for Ubuntu.

Ok, thanks. I was following the wiki install guide for the development environment and it's used there:
http://openmw.org/wiki/index.php?title= ... ment_Setup

I will discard the hard dependency and just put audiere as an independent ebuild in the overlay.

It is there for Windows and perhaps can also be used in Linux, what Ubuntu/Debian and I think Fedora packages use are the same as here:

http://openmw.org/wiki/index.php?title= ... pendencies

Try to find/build the equivalent of these packages:

libois-dev libopenal-dev libmpg123-dev libpng-dev libogre-dev \
libsndfile1-dev libblkid-dev libfreeimage-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-thread-dev \
libboost-program-options-dev libboost-system-dev uuid-dev libqt4-opengl libqt4-dev \
libbullet-dev libmygui-dev nvidia-cg-toolkit cmake build-essential

That should get you going.

Yep, for Fedora, I ignore Audiere as it is not available in Fedora's repos.

Thanks for the hints. I'll try to put together something functional. Let's see how it ends

Fixed the MyGUI ebuild, since it wasn't installing the compiled libraries. A simple default value in the cmake-utils.eclass and an "interesting" cmake logic in MyGUI was causing the installation of just the include files.

I can compile openmw clean now on my machine. How knows, maybe it will also execute correctly. But now, time to sleep.

Get to know when it will be ready. I would like to inform about this in weekly post.

I pushed a dumb openmw-9999.ebuild and it compile successfully the source code from git. That was my first milestone.

The ebuild it's not installing the binaries, because it's missing the rules fro make install (make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop)

When I start the openmw binary, I get some kind graphics and sound, which is already more than great. Since I'm using the opensource r600g driver, it could be that my rendering problems come from there. I'll have to check. Someone else using the r600g driver?

Edit:
I also pushed a README explaining a bit how to use my crappy ebuilds.
