freeorion package

[Link Dupont]

Hi everyone,

I've finished up an initial package for freeorion[1]. Since it was 
recently featured on Fedora Magazine, I wanted to give the Games SIG a 
chance to weigh in on the package (kind of like a bonus review). Once 
an update is pending in Bodhi, I'll let the group know too.

Big thanks to Antonio Trande for the review and pointing out my 
sleep-deprived mistakes. :)

Awesome! I'm getting a little tired of Stellaris failing to live up to
potential and I could use an open source alternative!

I haven't played much space-based 4X, but FreeOrion reminds me of 
Spaceward Ho! I played on my old Mac Plus *years* ago.

Thanks for reaching out here, Link! It will be super awesome to see 
FreeOrion hit Fedora repositories. I'm not one for package reviewing, 
but do reach out once it's on Bodhi and I'll give it a spin on my hardware.
