Lintian tag: global-data-in-games-directory

Type: error

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

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.
