This should work for simple games:

   http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/game-data-packager.git/commit/?id=e47ad4da639bca86695c20c3ddff746717d46e7c

For ROTT this got confused because the GOG.com package also
provides some files used to build rott-data (shareware).

Is the demo playing in ROTT broken ?

Now DEMO1_*.DMO is the only reason to download 1rott13.zip
when packaging the Steam/GOG version, but still
the demo doesn't work.

----------

setup_doom2_2.0.0.6.exe will likely also end in either 
doom2-wad's or doom2-masterlevels-wad's description
at random; but not both.

> cd-rom label
good idea
