Well, I'm now tempted to close this or tag it wontfix
and instead write my own wrapper script in /home/$user/bin
and left GDP untouched; I end up typing to many things
all the time anyway.

This would also relief me from having my modified
etc/game-data-packager.conf showing up in my
git diff all the time and forbidding
me from doing "git commit -a".

Indeed, two sets of hooks would had been needed:
- 1 per package
- 1 at the end

kbuildsycoca4 run as user; but that's a detail

I guess that some kind of race that only happen when you open the menu right
away in the few seconds after the package is installed.
