Hi Boris,

We are almost there, but not quite.

Just thinking aloud: the problem with the current scheme is that the
game data file will be present twice in the user system: on real FS and
in VFS. That could be avoided only by copying the fonts in
astromenace-data source, so I guess we'll have to live with that. I'm
wondering whether you could ship the data in a tar.xz archive to at
least save some space?

At least you could avoid duplicating AstroMenace as AstroMenaceFS2VFS:
simply move the postinst/prerm logic in astromenace instead of
astromenace-data. Note that as is, AstroMenace indirectly depends on
AstroMenaceFS2VFS, so you get the two exact same executables twice on
the system. Or you could make AstroMenace a link pointing to
AstroMenaceFS2VFS for the time being.

Typo in astromenace's control:
 - you can skip the line "This package contains game executable file."
If you keep it, you need an article in front of "game": "the game..."
 - "This package contains utility which generates AstroMenace date
file.": date -> data. Here again, you're missing an article: "a utility"
or "the utility".

Thanks for you continued efforts.

Kind regards, Thibaut.
