Bug Description

Binary package hint: lxdoom

When you install lxdoom from "Add/Remove..." and go to try it in Games, nothing happens, because dependencies are not installed, namely the game data (IWAD), the packages "freedoom" and "doom-wad-shareware" in the repos. It should be made clear when choosing lxdoom that additional files are required for it to function, else they should be installed as dependencies.

I can confirm this. Running "sudo apt-get install freedoom doom-wad-shareware" fixes this. Thanks for giving the solution in the bug report ;).
