BZFlag application not showing up

Post by cld71 »

I already summited a post to Gentoo Forum about this problem, but I reinstalled BZFlag, because of some broken libraries, but after the re-installation the main program bzflag doesn't show up in the package file listings.
I also compiled a source version of BZFlag, and the same thing happened, there wasn't a bzflag application.

No, as in, the bzflag binary itself isn't being built/copied. He showed that /usr/games/bin only contains bzfs and bzadmin.

And just for reference, the Gentoo forum post is here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-943264.html

BZFlag application is back

Post by cld71 »

Don't know why, but BZFlag main application is back.
I just recompiled everything that was associated with bzflag and now it is working.

Thanks...

The BZFlag configure step will choose to not compile the bzflag program if it fails to detect certain libraries and header files. Most likely, you installed the missing requirements between the time it failed and the time it succeeded.
