Creating a bug report for this so I don't just forget about it, in
between exams and winter break...

Hello,

I like to ask you to change the debian packaging of 0ad-data to the
following layout

0ad-data.install
        binaries/data/mods      usr/share/games/0ad/

0ad-data-common.install
        binaries/data/config    usr/share/games/0ad/
        binaries/data/tools     usr/share/games/0ad/

https://launchpad.net/~wfg/+archive/0ad.dev/+sourcepub/2841375/+listing-archive-extra

This puts the public.zip in its exclusive package which makes it
possible to supply delta-updates (0ad-data-update containing an
update.zip) and an updated 0ad-data-common package like I am doing in
the wfg/0ad.dev PPA.
Providing new testing versions with an update.zip reduces the download
size in a great way which is the main reason for this.

It would be nice to do this with the soon available Alpha 12 release.

Best regards,
Rico
