Yes, it is in gnome-games.

The executable, however, is called 'sol'. Is that why you can't find it?

I don't know what to tell you. AisleRiot is part of the gnome-games
package, and looking at it on my system, there are no weird ownership
issues (i.e., the user does not need to be a member of the games group
to run it, for example).

1) are you sure gnome-games is actually installed? Did you receive any
errors during the emerge?

2) Are any of the other games (gnotski, blackjack, nibbles) present in
the menu? Are they present in /usr/bin?

I don't know what to tell you, because I have just downloaded
gnome-games-2.6.2.tar.gz from gnome.org, and inside the tarball, the
first folder is aisleriot.

It is supposed to be there, and I don't know why you two don't have it.
I have never seen this problem, nor had it, and I've been using GNOME
since 2.4 (or possibly 2.2, I don't quite remember what Mandrake 9.0 had
available).

AisleRiot depends on guile. Make sure you have the guile use flag enable
for gnome-games.

Add

gnome-extra/gnome-games guile

to /etc/portage/package.use and recompile gnome-games.

Hi

1 st, I would like to thanks you for replyin. The things is I haven't
the file package.use. In Fact, I have only an empty directory called
sets included in /etc/portage. Is this Normal?

Thanks

You're welcome.

Yes, that's fine. Just create a new file and add the line mentioned
above.

thanks much. i looked at the ebuild when i noticed aisleriot was
missing, but there was no indication what using guile actually did.

the files in /etc/portage don't exist by default. just use your
favorite text editor to create a file called package.use and add the
line described.

I don't know what that "sets" directory is, but yes, it is normal to
have no files in /etc/portage if you haven't used any.

Just create the file in a text editor, copy and paste the line Oliver
gave you (and save it as package.use in /etc/portage, or you can also
use the following command -- as root: echo 'gnome-extra/gnome-games
guile' >>/etc/portage/package.use to both create the file and the
setting simultaneously, for a third alternative, you could add guile to
your USE flags in /etc/make.conf), as he is probably right that guile is
the problem.

I myself just solved a problem where gnone-games emerged fully (sol was
present), but sol itself did not work (all the other games did).

Re-emerging guile was there the solution, so it might well be here, as
well. Though sol not building at all seems like it should be an
emerge-stopper, imo.

I'm really starting to think there should be some kind of bug report
submitted concerning these problems with AisleRiot and guile, but I have
no idea what to say.

I had been missing aisle riot, and hoping to get it working. I had gnome-games
and had played a number of them from time to time, but no aisle riot.

Then, for other reasons, I had to emerge guile a couple of days ago. Also,
in the midst of discussions about USE flags, I added a few (including 'guile'),
and did a 'emerge -aDvu --newuse world', which recompiled gnome-games.
Now I have aisle riot. One of these things must have changed aisle riot from
not being included to being there.

Try some stuff like that....
