Bug#781584: d1x-rebirth: please look for data in /usr/share/games/descent1

Package: d1x-rebirth
Version: 0.58.1-1
Severity: minor


debian/patches/debian.patch seems completely extraneous,
as 'prefix' is already defined in debian/rules.

Please also define 'sharepath' to /usr/share/games/descent1/ ;
so that this games follow the same pattern set by other
games that are split in free engine + non-free data components;
where the datapath location should be engine-agnostic
to allow several engines to use the same original game data.
(even if at this time there is only one engine that can
procress Descent 1 data)

--- a/debian/rules
+++ b/debian/rules
override_dh_auto_build:
...
	CFLAGS="$(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS)" LDFLAGS="$(LDFLAGS)" \
-        scons prefix=/usr verbosebuild=1 --debug=presub
+        scons prefix=/usr sharepath=/usr/share/games/descent1 verbosebuild=1 --debug=presub


PS: game-data-packager can now package Descent 1&2 demo&full
data automatically.
