My point was that I have a valid use for the code even though there exists
no free game data. I need the game engine to create a game. Thus it is
useful even when no game exists.
My apt-get is set up to follow main, contrib, and non-free. I only worry
that a package exists before I try to download it. Apt-get install quake2
fails to find any package in woody. And what do I download for game
building tools?
So far I'm stumped ;-)
