Porteus

Since you could not start it via the GUI by just doing just a tgz2xzm (it lacked any usr/share/applications .desktop file), I added these files: I created the program icons using the first tile in one of its tile sets. Please know that I am not an expert with creating the alpha channel (also called transparency), so the icons are not really perfect. But better than no transpareny, and better than no icons, I think.
Maybe one of you folks can do a better job with the icons. (Maybe Donald already did. .. just now found his i586 module where he also created icon or icons.

And I also updated the var/log/packages/xmahjongg-3.7-x86_64-1_slonly file, adding the 3 files as listed above (and the needed folders) (and also adjusted the name of the man page file)

Here is the upload:

I think it neat that you can play a specific board like so (That only works in an X terminal) Of course you could create your very own /usr/share/applications .desktop files for starting xmahjongg with specific boards, but that would be overkill, IMHO.
Then again, for new users, that would be an easy way to learn about the /usr/share/applications .desktop files. :-D

HTH!

Thanks Rava. How does your version differ from this one: Love Porteus - is there a mahjong package I can install? (Post by donald #62837)

Good question. I only saw the 32Bit upload at the end of the thread. I added the 3 files as described above. Since I not downloaded donald's version I cannot tell what he changed / added to the original tgz.

UPDATE
So, I downloaded donald's module to compare it with mine.

xzm2dir tells me for Donalds module:
created 43 files
created 21 directories

And for my module:
created 44 files
created 27 directories

I created these files and folders in usr/share/ : (as I wrote in the initial post) while donald used a non xmahjongg related fish.svg file as icon for xmahjongg and put it into usr/games/ Also, our xmahjongg.desktop differ.

donalds version: My version: HTH.
