Hi,

since the Humble Indie Bundle V released a linux version of a couple of games, I decided to do a quick ebuild for Psychonauts: http://pastebin.com/aYKfKvtW

I made a patch out of the changes since it includes ebuild, manifest, EULAs.

To apply, cd into your local overlay and
Code:
patch -p1 < psychonauts-ebuild.patch


It could benefit from per language options, but I couldn't figure out yet how to do this properly. I'm not entirely sure if I got all the needed dependencies right though, the binary loads dynamically libstdc++.so.6 so not sure if this requires sys-devel/gcc[cxx] to be added?

You can install Psychonauts from gamerlay overlay:

Code:

layman -a gamerlay
emerge -av psychonauts

As mentioned by XavierMiller, it's totally legal.

The ebuild has a nofetch restriction which asks the person trying to install Psychonauts to download it from the end users page @ humblebundle.com; therefore the ebuild is legal and so is the process.

There are many retail games actually installable out of portage. Some examples: Doom 3, Quake 3, Postal 2, Prey, etc. It is a common practice in Gentoo and it is completely legal. You must have the downloaded package in distfiles for the installation to proceed.

May I suggest making a -data ebuild for this as well.
Phyc is a 4gig tarball, patches are in the order of megs. We already have one patch

would be better to have a psychonauts-data and a psychonauts ebuild
psychonauts depends on psychonauts-data (the base install) and psychonauts then can deal with patches.

Well, I thought make xdelta patch for new tarball, but icculus made mojo-installer :).
