I actually think it would be better to treat the z-code and ScummVM
games more like I did for Unreal - put symlinks in the package, pointing
at a script and .desktop file that are really in game-data-packager (or
maybe it's time to split off game-data-packager-runtime) and so can
actually get updated. But I wanted to get a release out before FOSDEM,
rather than delaying any further to implement this.
