 Quake dedicated server for Debian
 =================================
 
+Game data
+---------
+
+The Quake engine requires game data to run.  The data is not freely
+redistributable.  You should use the 'game-data-packager' tool to install it.
+
+For the full game, you will need at least id1/pak1.pak
+from a Quake II installation or CD-ROM; game-data-packager can download
+the rest. See /usr/share/games/game-data-packager/quake.yaml for full details,
+including the sizes and checksums of the required files.
+
+The shareware episode of Quake is freely downloadable and can also be
+packaged using game-data-packager.
