No worries =)

Not possible. There are many changes in the interface between virtual machine 
and game APIs. Alot of Flags are different, network protocol is completely 
different. It would have been a pain in the ass to make the switch between 
EF/Q3 at runtime. I just used #ifdefs. That means, Q3 should work okay if you 
don't have ELITEFORCE set as macro, but that's of course not what you meant 
to do.

You'd probably need to do a seperate package. Of course, being a long-time 
debian user myself, I'd find it cool if that happened. :)
