Description

If it's possible and easy to do, please add this library as a steam-launcher dependency. Many UnrealEngine, Source etc. games require this lib to load textures, without it all of them are black. It took me while to figure that, so I think it's better to save other's time and install it with steam-launcher.

Also please add this USE abi_x86_32 so 32 bit games will work with that lib.

Probably this would require change in original gentoo package but I hope that not.

After commenting this in my package.use/custom file:

 #media-libs/libtxc_dxtn abi_x86_32 

Then I installed steam-launcher and saw that there is new dep. New dep also has abi_x86_32 USE being enabled.

<user>-pc <user> # emerge -a steam-launcher

Local copy of remote index is up-to-date and will be used.

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[binary  N     ] media-libs/libtxc_dxtn-1.0.1-r1  ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" 
[binary  N     ] games-util/steam-launcher-1.0.0.54-r1  USE="steamruntime" 

Later I launched Chivalry: Medieval Warfare (32 bit UE3 game) and it worked good, every texture on it's place.

Thank you cl team

P.S. There is license warning in this lib package, but I think it's mostly harmless...
