Bug#1094986: dhewm3: build some mods from the dhewm3-sdk github project

[Sébastien Noel]

Package: src:dhewm3
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Would it be possible for you to add additional upstream tarballs to this 
source package (DebSrc3.0 supports that) and build the libraries for 
mods from the dhewm3-sdk repository ?
You are already splitting the game code for dhewm3-doom3 & dhewm3-d3xp 
in separate packages, the new binary packages for mods would look 
exactly like those.
Or do you think that it doesn't fit in src:dhewm3 and that I should make 
another source package in Debian for that ?

Why I am asking that ?
Because in game-data-packager we currently supports 2 dhewm3 mods 
(Classic Doom 3 and The Lost Mission), and to supports those, in 
addition to download/package pure data we also download code from 
github, build it and ship a so library in the generated .deb. This is 
fragile and not frequently tested (we don't rebuild very often those 
kind of data package), and I'm in search of an alternative to ship those 
game mods libraries properly somewhere else in Debian.

Best regards,
Sébastien
