I'd like to see nexuiz replaced by xonotic in [community]. Problem is
that nexuiz is still a fairly popular package despite being dead

Technically, xonotic does not replace nexuiz because its gameplay is
somewhat different.
I'd like some opinions on this.
hi, imho:
different game -> additional package
nexuiz still popular -> keep package as is.
My two cents: I'm of those who believe that we can't keep throwing 1GB
packages in the repos like there's no tomorrow. So if nexuiz and xonotic
are quite similar, it makes sense to only package one of them and save
the extra gigabyte for a different game.

I think that's the wrong reason for choosing to keep only one of the
two packages.
If the sizes of the packages are problematic that's a different issue.
That said, being nexuiz a dead project may be a good enough reason to remove it.
If not for that I would keep them both.
i say to remove all games :D
