OK, I took the last one:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sources]$ ls -al /var/cache/quake3-data/install/
total 78336
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 16 2005-11-10 23:33 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 16 2005-11-10 23:32 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 49289300 2005-11-06 10:47 linuxq3ademo-1.11-6.x86.gz.sh
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 30923961 2005-11-06 21:15 linuxq3apoint-1.32b-3.x86.run
When purging the package
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sources]$ sudo dpkg --purge quake3-data
(Reading database ... 92306 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing quake3-data ...
Purging configuration files for quake3-data ...
dpkg - warning: while removing quake3-data, directory
`/var/cache/quake3-data/install' not empty so not removed.

and that's the way I think it should be: the downloaded archives are not
deleted.
