Packaging Xonotic - Nexuiz fork

[Rahul Sundaram]

Hi

Anyone looking at packaging Xonotic?  Xonotic is a Nexuiz fork or really
the continuation of the original name under a name name

http://www.xonotic.org/the-game/faq/

The game is now under a playable stage with many improvements

http://www.xonotic.org/2011/09/xonotic-0-5-release/

It bundles the Dark places engine and it is probably better to unbundle
it similar to what happened with OpenArena and ioquake but that might
require additional effort.   I intend to take a look at this later but
if anyone wants to get involved, that would be great

I maintain Nexuiz.  I think nexuiz has a darkplaces subpackage, could 
xonotic use that?  If so, a third SRPM they both use might be better.

I haven't tried it out but FAQ at http://www.xonotic.org/the-game/faq/,
the answer should be yes.  If you want to take a look, go ahead.  I
don't want to download a large game on the home connection and will try
this later.

Can't, the one machine I have that has the slightest prayer of running 
Nexuiz is. . .unavailable. . .right now. :)
