Bug#848374: game-data-packager: ability to skip probing the file system

[Fabian Greffrath]

Package: game-data-packager
Version: 48
Severity: wishlist

Hi there,

please add a command line option to prevent g-d-p from probing my file
system for additional game data files. That is, if I type "g-d-p doom
/path/to/gog-setup.exe" I want g-d-p to create a data package from
this very resource and not have it iterate through my file system and
discover all the other variants of DOOM.WAD that I have installed.

Thanks!

 - Fabian
