Well I do believe in this "the universal operating systems" stuff,
so long they work with scummvm, they should be supported too.

Adding new a random game is quite simple with "game-data-packager
make-template",
adding a dubbing is more difficult; because 1 yaml = 1 namespace,
and you cant have different checksums for one single file.

soltys.yaml is a good reference to see how that works.

> I've got an original german CD releas of Grim Fandango

For this game, you'll most likely end up with different files
for vox000#.lab .

That means a bunch of:
   vox0001.lab_de:
      install_as: vox0001.lab
      look_for: [vox0001.lab]
in the "files:" dict.

If you aren't lucky, most files will have been changed, like for maniacmansion.

The sha256 sums aren't used ("yet") and the sha1 aren't mandatory:
I would mostly document them for archives coming from internet
or for package with a limited number of files.

> Collectors CD including Sam&Max and DotT, would these be ok to include, too?
Great ! But I'd like to start with the English versions first for
consistency (I have those),
in order to always use the English version as the reference;
even if this was not the original version, like for Sołtys and Dračí Historie.

> I could also have a German version of The Dig lying around here, i'll have to look.

for this one, the GOG packages seems to be the full version for all languages;
according to the archives size

464M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/gog_the_dig_1.0.0.5.deb
472M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/gog_the_dig_french_1.0.0.6.deb
455M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/gog_the_dig_german_1.0.0.6.deb
444M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/gog_the_dig_italian_1.0.0.6.deb
446M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/gog_the_dig_spanish_1.0.0.6.deb
467M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/setup_the_dig_2.0.0.3.exe
470M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/setup_the_dig_french_2.0.0.3.exe
458M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/setup_the_dig_german_2.0.0.3.exe
442M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/setup_the_dig_italian_2.0.0.3.exe
444M    /home/tchet/gdp/dig/setup_the_dig_spanish_2.0.0.3.exe

the GOG archives are full of useless stuff, so I was first automating
cruft-removal:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/game-data-packager.git/commit/?id=0482b6c683503ea56e0a8c8a4e5071174c46de7c

Building an English-only .yaml file is now mostly automated; this
should be done soon.


Thanks,
