|
|
Hello, ok thought i would do my first howto
It is a real pain when an overnight update halts on a game because you have to manually agree to licence, however there is way to automatically agree to the licence and so not interupt the update.
You will need to edit /etc/make.conf and add following line:
Code: |
ACCEPT_LICENSE="LICENCE"
|
So for Quake4 and Enemy Territory (Return to Castle Wolfstein) you would add:
Code: |
ACCEPT_LICENSE="QUAKE4"
ACCEPT_LICENSE="RTCW-ETEULA"
|
If you are not sure of which licence to use, then grep is your friend.
Example for enemy-territory do
Code: |
$ grep LICENSE /usr/portage/games-fps/enemy-territory/enemy-territory-2.60b.ebuild
LICENSE="RTCW-ETEULA"
|
Hope this helps.
I have to thank the following for pointing me in right direction on this issue.

Man, what a great tip. I didn't realize this was doable. Btw, for quake3-bin:
Code: | ACCEPT_LICENSE="Q3AEULA" |
