Control: severity -1 grave
Control: tags -1 fixed-upstream patch

The upstream flightgear-data 2016.4.1, 2, 3 and 4 are completely identical except the version number - only flightgear and simgear were actually being changed, but this check required all of them to be re-released.

Upstream have just relaxed this requirement (in current development only; would probably work in 2016.4, but not tested):
https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/simgear/ci/fd34cc30b8ef0d61d0763cf44eec534dfa02686e/
https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/flightgear/ci/4a3ee6a74a1416451cfc94be9be788b39e2f97ec/

Alternatively, we could edit the 'version' files (in the source root of each) to make them think they're all the same version.

(If you want it to work now, rather than after the 10-day unstable-to-testing wait, the latter also works on the installed /usr/share/games/flightgear/version)

Dear Maintainer,

I installed a fresh copy of flightgear a day or two ago, along with its dependencies. The 
version on the main flightgear package is 2016.4.3, but all dependencies are version 
2016.4.2. The flightgear startup dialog asked for the path to the data files. After a bit 
of googling and checking my system, I pointed it to /usr/share/games/flightgear. The 
dialog then complained "The chosen location (/usr/share/games/flightgear) contains 
files for version 2016.4.2, but this is FlightGear 2016.4.3. Please update or try another 
location".
I have not tried downloading a copy of the 2016.4.3 data from upstream. 
Presumably that would work, but I would prefer that the flightgear package 
dependencies be as strict as the game itself is, so that the installed game 
works as-is.
