Package: game-data-packager
Version: 21
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I am the maintainer of the rott (Rise of the Triad) package. My
package currently downloads and installs the non-free shareware game
data from the upstream server during postinst and has been bitten by
#530570, when upstream changed the download location for the game
data. In the bug report it was recommended to add support for rott in
game-data-packager, so I downloaded the package sources and tried to
investigate the issue.
However, I found game-data-packager to be rather DOOM-centric and
following the concept of single WAD files rather closely, whereas rott
requires a multitude of data files to run. To make a long story short,
I could not find a point of entry to finally add support for rott and
would like you to add some generic hints and maybe boilerplates for
adding support for other non-DOOM games.
Alternatively this bug may get closed if you (a) added support for the
rott package or (b) helped my to implement it. ;)
Cheers,
Fabian
