I agree, but this "-data" in package name sounds completely extraneous,
why not use "/usr/share/games/PACKAGENAME".rstrip('-data') instead as default ?

This would stick with what the other games do;
even the free ones like neverball-data for exampe.

tchet at antec:~$ ls /usr/share/games/ | wc -l
56
tchet at antec:~$ ls /usr/share/games/ -l | grep data
drwxr-xr-x  3 root root 20480 jan 22 18:43 game-data-packager
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root  4096 jan 13 22:57 quake3-data
drwxr-xr-x  3 root root  4096 jan 28 12:37 quake3-team-arena-data
drwxr-xr-x  3 root root  4096 déc 31 12:08 rtcw-data

(and quake3-data is a link-farmed from quake3 anyway)

ok, so doom3.yaml should be changed and the two engines too.
