To clarify further, would it be adequate to sed -i s/old/new/ the

In order to infringe a trademark one must "advertise" with it, so its fine
to
just use patches / sed as you like.
This is all AFAIK, IANAL ofcourse, but this is what other troublesome
packages
have been doing sofar.
I've got a basic package ready that's modified somewhat to fit Fedora's
filesystem layout. I still need to add a Desktop file, and clarify the
handling of the user account for the -dedicated package. It comes with a
script that tries to do it for you, as well as the initscript portion.
Before I test those, I'd like to know whether I should use upstream's
scripts, or if there's a preferred way of handling the user and initscript
issues in the spec.
Does this user uid need to be persistent over different installs within the
same network? If so it needs special handling, else just an adduser from %pre,
with the proper shell (or better lack there of), description, homedir etc, will
suffice.
Do not remove this user on erase, unless you are 100% sure that no files owned
by it will be left behind under for example /var after erase.
I'm also looking for more detail as far as how deeply the name needs to be
changed. I know I have to change the package name, the name displayed in
Desktop, and the name as seen in-game. What about path names, variable
names, etc?
Only user visible things need to be changed, again think "advertising" not as
in adds, but as in visible in the spash screen, etc.
So variables are not an issue at all, path names / filenames are not an issue
either AFAIK. Spot?

Hans
