Goals
The [wiki:?Games/Development/DataLoader ?DataLoader] project has as goals the following:
- provide a way to make the package management aware of non-official packages so the game can depend on them
- non-free data files (e.g.: quake3 data-files)
- local data files (e.g.: Ooilte OXP packages)
- create some meta-packages for the unofficial packages which, if uninstalled will remove all the files installed unofficially
The non-official packages could be created from tarballs fetched from:
- http servers
- ftp servers
- local filesystem
- CD-s
Examples/Prior work
