You're not the only one.

Hey, I'm now a RedHat "architect": I can tell the admin what to do,
but can't have access myself to a shell (segregeation of duties)...
how frustrating ;-P

I too believe in cross-distro colaboration; after the project I'm working on has made \
good progress on RPMFusion & SuSE repositories; I switched the sample .specfile to \
Mageia; to make your life easier:

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/game-data-packager.git/commit/?id=499efe2e45ee1a4474868853f7c9c17fdca9173e


With a little GUI, this tool could act as a meta overlay over GOG.com / Steam
to let users pick up verified non-free data needed by free engines. (scummvm, FPS's \
etc...)

It's already so much better than to follow 17 steps howto's.

Greets,

Alexandre Detiste
