No strong preference. Assuming they contain the same data files, plus
different executables/wrappers/emulators that you will discard anyway:

If one of the packages is smaller, prefer that one.

If one of the packages is more straightforward to unpack, prefer that one.
(g-d-p has built-in support for unpacking tar and zip archives which is
lighter-weight than needing innoextract.)

If you're feeling particularly thorough, tell g-d-p how to unpack both.

Probably a stupid question, but since GOG provides a package for Windows
and one for Linux (in general), which one do we use for g-d-p?
