  Description : Open Source remake of One Must Fall 2097

OpenOMF is a Open Source remake of One Must Fall 2097 by Diversions
Entertainment. Since the original DOS game from 1994 still uses IPX networking
and is a pain to set up, the community needed a better solution to keep playing
the game we love. Together with networking, this remake tries to make it easier
to play One Must Fall in original glory on multiple platforms (Linux, Mac OSX,
Windows, BSD to name a few).

This also requires packaging libshadowdive for which I filed an ITP for as
well.

Ports of Keen Dreams (based on https://github.com/keendreams/keen/ which
followed a fundraising campaign), Catacomb 3-D (The Descent) and the Catacomb
Adventure Series (the Catacomb ports are based on source codes from
https://github.com/FlatRockSoft/)

I will write the required patches for game-data-packager to ease acquiring game
data for the aforementioned games.

UNLZEXE extracts MS-DOS executables compressed with Frabrice Bellard's LZEXE
exe compressor.
http://bellard.org/lzexe.html
I am going to package this because it is needed for extracting game resources
for the refkeen-project which is a fork of the recently released source code of
Commander Keen Dreams (Keen 3.5 / lost episode.

See bug #786501 for the corresponding wishlist-bug in game-data-packager.

libshadowdive is a library for reading and writing datafiles of the game

This library is a dependency of openOMF which open-source reimplementation of
the original game called OpenOMF, which I also intent to package.
