Gentoo: Remove bit about 2.0 svn branch, and broken link to svn ebuild
Line 24: Line 24:
  # emerge bzflag
  # emerge bzflag


Alternatively, if you want to grab the 2.0 subversion branch (you probably shouldn't worry about this unless you need a bug fix that you know is not in the latest release), there is an ebuild available to do this at http://succexy.com/~chris/overlay/games-action/bzflag/bzflag-9999.ebuild. See the [http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Installing_3rd_Party_Ebuilds Gentoo Wiki] for more information on using third-party ebuilds.
