Package: gnome-video-arcade
Version: 0.8.0-2
Severity: normal

The default build options used by gnome-video-arcade does not allow the user to
add his own catver, history and nplayers data file.

This could be enabled by adding
--with-category-file=/usr/local/share/gnome-video-arcade/catver.ini
--with-history-file=/usr/local/share/gnome-video-arcade/history.dat
--with-nplayers-file=/usr/local/share/gnome-video-arcade/nplayers.ini

to the configure script while building the package.

As I have seen seen enabling this options even if the data files are not
present does not harm the use of gnome-video-arcade (except  a warning on the
command line )

The package install could take care of creating the empty directory in
/usr/local/share/gnome-video-arcade/

I have cooked an ugly shell script at http://wiki.debian.org/gva-datafiles
which downloads the mentioned files at the proposed place, we might mention or
not in the pacakge documentation ( depending on how much you like ugly shell
scripts :)
