Hello Debian Games Team,


I've packaged zdoom for Debian and would like to ask if someone would like to have a look at the
package and eventually upload it for me (I've already asked on mentors and they told me to ask
you directly):


* Package name    : zdoom
  Version         : 2.5.0-2
  Upstream Author : Randy Heit <smordak at yahoo.com>
* URL             : http://zdoom.org
* License         : ZDoom may be used and distributed free of charge.
  Section         : contrib/games

It builds these binary packages:
zdoom      - Enhanced Doom engine

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 609352, 609349

My motivation for maintaining this package is:

  The zdoom-engine is capable of running some doom style games that
  the prboom-engine can not (like heretic, hexen and strife).

  I've put it in contrib because it depends on a non-free library from
  www.fmod.org which will be downloaded on the fly during the build process.


The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/z/zdoom
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/z/zdoom/zdoom_2.5.0-2.dsc

Thanks for any feedback!
