Ah you're right, I got confused because of things like docs/manpages and
desktop entries not being in /usr/share/games, but those are obviously a
different sort of thing. Sorry

I'm happy to make changes in my upstream repo to support packaging, but
I'm not going to commit to some git clone of my repo. Hopefully, you can

you can't, I think that's going to be a problem going forward).
