I think /usr/share/games/wolf3d is not Debian specific at all,
many DOS games follow this same pattern
C:\<GAME> -> /usr/share/games/<game>
/usr/share/games/super-noahs-... well is
I thought it could be as simple as this one-line change to support this extra
path,
but I must have got something wrong.

(maphead.wl6 from v1.4 is well there)

For Noah's ark, I didn't specified any directory at all yet, It's just the
default algorithm that does
"/usr/share/games/" + package name (=super-3d-noahs-ark-data) with '-data'
stripped
This works fine as this is the same program that write the .desktop file;
this could really be anything.

With the "Path=" tag in the desktop file, it doesn't need an extra wrapper
script :-)
S3DNA assets could be mixed in /usr/share/games/wolf3d, but then
how can one tell ecwolf to prefer this game over Wolf3d
without using config files ?
I've got now S3DNA re-packaging working pretty well,
and this package should remain compatible with any
improvement to ecwolf.
This even finds this icon in .local/share/icons/hicolor/.
Thanks for the md5's !

Do you plan to support the shareware version too ?
I guess only the latest version ?

I was a bit confused because I tricked Linux Steam into downloading some
Windows-only game;
to get the game assets (well I was only interrested in ROTT back then), but
then they are never updated.
So I ended up with 2 different sets of files.
