Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge prboom
2. emerge doomlegacy


Actual Results:  
I had two doom1.wad files on my hd, where one would be enough

Expected Results:  
The software (doom and doomlegacy) should agree on one place where to keep doom1.wad

perhaps we should unify datadirs like with quake1/quake2 ...

/usr/share/games/doom-data/

games-fps/doom-data

doom wad files now go into /usr/share/games/doom-data/
