I'll just pushed a new doom3.yaml to the gbp repository which reflects
my actual packaging. The package is also setup to looks
in /usr/share/games/doom3 and will auto-update the gamedata if
neccessary.

(But maybe you can take a look at my commit -- It seemed to ignore the 
longname for the RoE expansion pack, the resulting package
doom3-resurrection-data had as Description: "Doom 3 (original or BFG
Edition)" -- I expected to gdp to use the longname specified in its
packages: specification; I worked around by specifiing it in the
doom3-resurrection-data.control.in, which I had anyway to specify the
correct dependencies on the game logic *.so)

Regarding the gmae??.pk4 -- they seem not to be needed; my copy runs
without them.
Could it be that the game engine tries to load stuff from it when it
sees it? As game01.pk4 seems to contains a gamex86.so, this could be the
cause of the crash.. (only speculations, I didn't try)	

Below I paste ls -la /usr/share/games/doom3/* -- this works here.

The dhewm3 packge is now in NEW, the repository here:
https://alioth.debian.org/plugins/scmgit/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=pkg-games/dhewm3.git

Regarding the d3xp' pak000 -- ignore my mumbling, I found the pak000 now
on another CD. The earlier one was "only" the original game, but already
included the patch already. That apperantly confused me.

Now I'll start working on the gbp part for the bfg edition...
