To save space for debian servers.

The lilyterm-data contains architecture independent files like i18n.
Because they are architecture independent, putting them into
lilyterm-data can make it serves all architectures (12 IIRC) in debian.
If these files are in lilyterm, which is architecture dependent, debian
will have 12 copies of these data.
