Abdessamad Derraz d3fe3a4f0c chore: hold five pins on the build they ship
chocolate-doom, supertuxkart and fheroes2 run only on EmuELEC, piemu only
on AmberELEC, alephone only on RetroPie. Each of those builds a fixed
revision (package.mk PKG_VERSION, or the release-20250829 tag), so the
pin stays on it and profile_sync judges the profile against itself.

notes: |
Free reimplementation of the Heroes of Might and Magic II engine (New World
Computing, 1996). It plays the original or demo data. EmuELEC builds this
revision, installs the engine's resurrection.h2d under
/usr/share/fheroes2/files/data and runs fheroes2 from
/storage/roms/ports/fheroes2. When data/HEROES2.AGG is absent there, its
fheroes2.sh offers to download the demo (h2demo.zip from archive.org) and
unpacks its DATA and MAPS directories in place.

Every resource is looked up under each root directory in turn: the
FHEROES2_DATA build path and environment variable, the program's directory,
then the OS data directories. The data subdirectory is scanned for .agg
files, the one whose lowercased name ends in heroes2.agg is the game
resource file, and a heroes2x.agg beside it turns on The Price of Loyalty
content. No AGG, no resurrection.h2d, or an AGG without the font stops the
start with a missing resource window.

Maps are the .mp2, .mx2 (with the expansion) and .fh2m files of the maps
directories, campaign videos come from anim, anim2, heroes2/anim or data,
and CD music from music. All are optional.
