[Bug 2046388] [NEW] reinstate alex4-data as an alternative to game-data-packager

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Chris Peterson (cpete):

As discussed in LP: #2045607, the reason for alex4 relying on
alex4-data, even though alex4-data is not a distributable package (at
least publicly), is so that users can build a package which bundles all
of the non-distributable data once and then distribute it to their other
machines without having to rebuild it.

A previously provided example of this currently is the package
opentyrian, which relies on "tyrian-data | game-data-packager":

https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/opentyrian


One change that we should make is to put game-data-packager first in the OR condition. Some tools may try very hard to install the first option and I think putting the package which is actually available in the archive first makes a little more sense.
