I don't think duplicating the metadata to all the packages sold by GOG
scales well. In what way does GDP complain, and can we make it not
complain instead?

OK. Now that I've implemented it, there's little cost to keeping it, so
we might as well.

Yes, if we can do it without duplicating too much code. In particular,
it would be nice to be able to repack a GDP-generated .deb without
actually installing it.
