[PLUG] Quake III

["Gregson Helledy" <gregsonh@gra-inc.com>]

A friend has just presented me with a new-in-the-box copy of Quake III for
linux.
(Sadly, he was able to buy it for $1.99, though I guess I'm about to benefit
from others' misfortune.)
I recall hearing that Loki's install scripts often weren't very "clean",
scattering stuff everywhere across your filesystem.  Has anyone had any
experience with this, and is there anything I could do in advance to reduce
the mess?

I am running Libranet 2.0 (Debian-based).  Maybe I'm revealing my ignorance
but is there any way to "squeeze" QIII into a .deb (like checkinstall does
for tarballs)? I also have my old SuSE partition still around, which I could
try installing it on first, but I'm not sure what that would get me.
