It's ready now.

GDP can now check for engine / engine version at runtime;
this way GDP release cycle doesn't need to be sync'ed
with some other random package release cycle.

User must now use '--force' if he hasn't yet installed ecwolf
upstream .deb or made a fake one with equivs.

This could also check for the presence /usr/games/<engine>
but I'd rather not promote unpackaged stuff in /usr/ 
outside of /usr/local/ .
