Hi ports -- Attached is a new port, games/brogue. Brogue is a graphical Roguelike game.
I freely admit that pkg/DESCR, "Brogue is a graphical Roguelike game.", sucks. I could not find a serious description of the game on its HOMEPAGE or in its source code. Perhaps someone who knows the game better can provide one?
However, it does work well for me on amd64. Some notes:1. Brogue carries its own copy of a support library called libtcod. I chose to build a static version of the library and link it directly into the binary because it is an older version of the library that still supports SDL1 (upstream libtcod removed SDL1 support quite some time ago); Brogue does use some of those SDL1 functions from the old library.
2. I fixed up the .desktop file; I think it's worth having the .desktop file around with the associated RDEP. However, I placed the icon file in LOCALBASE/share/pixmaps to avoid the RDEP on gtk+3,-guic, which does seem like overkill for a port with such few dependencies. It seems to work fine this way--tint2 found the .desktop file with the proper icon.
3. While brogue can be built curses-only, I decided against a no_x11 FLAVOR since the curses version of the game requires a minimum terminal size of 100x34 and appears to still require the mouse to access certain menu options so I'm just not sure how useful a no_x11 FLAVOR could really be.
4. Brogue drops its high score and replay files into whatever your cwd is. OK? ~Brian
