E global-data-in-games-directory

All reports of global-data-in-games-directory for the archive. The extended description of this tag is:

This package contains files under /usr/share/games, such as desktop files, icons, pixmaps, or MIME type entries, that are global system data. The user's desktop environment will only check in the directories directly under /usr/share and this information should be put in the global directory even if it is for games.

The most common cause of this problem is using a --datadir=/usr/share/games argument to configure or an equivalent and using the upstream installation rules. These files need to be moved into the corresponding directories directly under /usr/share.

Severity: important, Certainty: certain

The package names link to the relevant maintainer page and the corresponding report for the source package. The links go to the full maintainer report page, which includes info and experimental tags and overridden tags, rather than the default page that shows only errors and warnings.
