Yes, I mean "user files" are saved in the user dir. The game's
original data are in /usr/share/%{?mageia:games}/crawl and should be
accessed read-only.

I guess there is something broken due to `SAVEDIR="~/.crawl"
SHAREDDIR=%{_datadir}/%{name}` which is defined in the Fedora spec
file and not in Mageia's. Maybe it can't parse `~` as expected and
thus overrides its *correct* default userdir value and defaults
instead to the datadir?
