Bug#776540: please add support for games working with gemrbd engine

[Alexandre Detiste]

Hi,

Good news !

I found why GPD couldn't process the MojoSetup archives for Baldur's Gate:
the zero-byte files in .zip files are discarded.


Yanking out this check in consider_zip() doens't seem to be the right thing todo
G-D-P should really be able to generate these 0-bytes from nothing if needed.

        for entry in zf.infolist():
            if not entry.file_size:
                continue

I used this workaround for another game:

+  # workaround bug when processing 0 byte file in zip file
+  playfld.cps?de:
+    look_for: [playfld.cps,/dev/null]

Here's the list of the files impacted:

I guess you can remove "Baldur.err" & "Baldur.log" from the package definition.
