Hi!
I've made some testing of your version of the port. Both 0.9.11 from my tree
and yours 0.9.14 are looking for files in ~/.fheroes2 so no need to install
data in global /usr/local/share directory.
I've change3d README accordingly and added info about installing demo data.
I've also added a patch from my version for demo download script and added it
in do-install target.
OK kirby@ with the changes to README. Demo download script is optional bit.
