game data packager: doom_common

[Alexandre Detiste]

Hi Jon & Simon,

Is it ok for you to rip-out doom-common.copyright.in &
doom-common.README.Debian.in and let the new default logic generate
the copyright file ?

Here is a sample result of the new copyright generator:

> The package doom2-wad was generated using game-data-packager.
>
> "/usr/share/games/doom/doom2.wad"
> is a user-supplied file with copyright
> © 1994 id Software, with all rights reserved.
>
> The Debian packaging is:
>
> © 2008-2013 Jonathan Dowland <jmtd at debian.org>
> © 2014-2015 Simon McVittie <smcv at debian.org>
> © 2015 Alexandre Detiste <alexandre at detiste.be>
>
> +GPL 2 Blurb

current version:

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/game-data-packager.git/tree/data/doom-common.copyright.in

The README would simple go away

Cheers,

Alexandre
