  • warzone2100 video downloader

    Regarding the above bug report, I don't think that cut-scene videos add much
    to the game play, and I'm certain it doesn't add enough to justify a gigabyte or more storage on the Debian mirrors.

    I think it would be OK to have a video downloader package or a downloader script in the main package but I don't plan to write it.

    I welcome contributions to this, I'd be happy to upload a new package to
    Debian if someone sends me tested scripts that provide useful functionality
    for some people in this regard.

    A possible good home for something like this is "game-data-packager".
