[Games] Tome - Tales of Middle Earth

Question

edit: PKGBUILD and patch updated
here is my second pkgbuild.. its annoying me a bit because the makefile is so badly written.
ive hacked it slightly, but its still acting strangely. I believe it to be the games fault and not mine, but as always i may be wrong.
i dont know how to include links in a pkg.
ive done an ln -s xxx yyy but since the target doesnt exist in the filesystem yet, it cant be done during the build stage.. i assume there is a post-install ability where this would be done.. if anyone could point out how to do this id be greatful, otherwise ill just start `man'ing and figure it out myself.
FYI, the game comes with LUA support, but it compiles and runs fine without it, hence it is not in DEPENDS

any updates with this messy makefile / pkg would be appreciated, i havent played it yet but it sounds pretty cool.
thanks again.

ive updated PKGBUILD and makefile patches above.
this has to be the most annoying thing ever..
if the lib directory (data files) arent set to a specific user's home directory, then the parsed files must later be chmod /chown and chgrp'ed to a proper user so everyone else can use them.
if theyre set to a specific users home directory, then no one else has access to them!!!
im not sure what the best way to go about it would be, but for the time being ive set the /usr/local/tome/*/ directories as group user with write permissions.
once a user runs the game they have chowned the parsed files, if another user wants to run it, the files must chown and chgrp'ed
any help would be appreciated
