For instance megaglest, ufoai, redeclipse, bzflag, openarena, wesnoth etc. provide their own standalone server package. The situation is different for master/meta servers like dpmaster [1] or the megaglest master server [2]. They are only needed once, so those kind of packages would receive very little testing. Upstreams often discourage the use of a different master server because they want to ensure that the player pool isn't split between them which simply makes it harder to find other players for online games. In general I'm in favor of packaging such master servers for Debian but I suppose there is little interest from the community and as long as we struggle to keep our 400+ packages in shape I can't see that someone from Debian is doing all the packaging work in the near future.
