Re: Newer vegastrike : can we package that big ?

Not sure if this would work, but what if you simply had a 
data-repository package that contained nothing but the custom 
sources.list for /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and had all the games with 
-data packages (which would be on the main archive) depend on it, and 
thus, the first time someone tries to install a game with a -data 
package it would add the repository.

Although the problem is it would need to be done in two apt operations, 
apt-get update would need to be called in between installing the 
repository package, and actually installing games.


Just my thoughts,
Jack Coulter
