Title:
  alex4 depends on alex4-data but is NBS

Status in alex4 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  alex4-data is currently listed as an NBS due to changes in alex4
  v1.1-10, which drops alex4-data as as a build target but leaves
  alex4-data as a potential Depends. I've read through (Debian Bug)
  #1035043 but it is still unclear to me (1) the intended fate of
  alex4-data and (2) if it can be fully replaced by game-data-packager.

  It appears that alex4-data on Debian is just an old version of alex4
  which builds it. My assumption is that the answer to (2) is yes, and
  game-data-packager is meant to fully replace alex4-data. In this case
  my suggestion is to drop alex4-data from Depends (patch to follow this
  post).

  I will note that these changes were only from a few days ago, so
  perhaps I'm jumping the gun.
