If you have a machine available, they can be built automatically using the
Debian Games Team's autobuilder. We (the DGT) are using ourselves and is
really useful.

Here are the pages generated by the builder:
http://nana.rulezlan.org/~goneri/pkg-games/

And the source code is in our repo (BTW, we would appreciate patches to be
contributed back ;-) )
svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-games/people/goneri

The main component is the update_all.sh script which can be put in a cron job
to trigger rebuilds.

The scripts need some small tweaks to work with the unstable svn-buildpackage
- - now they work with a modified version that supports remote URLs (#385783),
while the unstable version can work with origUrls (#377880).
