[Fedora-packaging] Game data packaging

[Michał Bentkowski]

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Games/Packaging → "Data files
(maps, pixmaps, sounds) go in  %{_datadir}/%{name} , not
%{_datadir}/games/%{name} . Binaries go in  %{_bindir}  and not
/usr/games. According to the FHS, the use of /usr/share/games and
/usr/games is optional, and we recommend not using either for
consistency, so that games are packaged like all other applications. "

> I'm currently preparing package for one small game. It uses standard
> automake. Game assumes that its data will be in $datadir/games/gamename
> and there is no easy way to change it (except patching configure.in). I
> checked my system and there is only one game (gbrainy) with data in
> /usr/share/games(/gbrainy).
> I would like to ask is there any advise to put game data in games subdir
> or it should be treated as a normal application?
