please add to
=============
Long Description: Dune Legacy is an effort by a handful of developers to revitalize the first-ever real-time strategy game. The original game was the basis for the hugely successful Command and Conquer series, and the gameplay has been replicated an extended to a wide variety of storylines and series. Lead one of three interplanetary houses, Atreides, Harkonnen or Ordos, in an attempt to harvest the largest amount of spice from the sand dunes. Exchange your spice stockpiles for credits through refinement and build an army capable of thwarting attempts of the other houses to stop your harvesting! 
=============
the following hint:
=============
The PAK-files from the original Dune 2 are needed to play Dune Legacy. 

Reproducible: Always

longdescription is already present in metadata.xml

I can add an elog in pkg_postinst telling the user to copy the files, but those instructions are already in the README file which is installed as well + when you start the game anyway.

reopen if there are any open questions, no response, closing

IMO the user should be informed about the neccesary files in the package description. So it could be read before installation.
