Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist I will be packaging the latest SVN version of ioquake3 without any game data. It will be for use with a game such as Quake 3, OpenArena, World of Padman, or Urban Terror. This will build two binary packages (client/server), containing only the applicable client/server engine binary. Packages that will use this will be reworked to contain only launcher scripts, man pages, and menu entries, the resulting updated packages will have dependencies on only their relevant -data package, and the appropriate ioquake3 or ioquake3-server.
Note that after this change the game package itself will also be arch indep, so it is likely that these games' scripts and menu entries could likely be merged into their data package in the future if that is desired. Games which have made modifications the the ioquake3 engine too drastic to remain compatible will stay as they are (Tremulous is the only current example of this). Please see worldofpadman, urbanterror and quake3 on the Games Team's SVN for examples of how these packages have been reworked. OpenArena has also been reworked but will not be committed until ioQuake3 is at least in testing, and any outstanding issues addressed. ioQuake3 is GPLv2 and can be downloaded at http://www.ioquake3.org
