Packaging "The Dark Mod": recursive/multiple URLs source

[Pierre Neidhardt]

Hi,

I'm trying to package The Dark Mod (http://www.thedarkmod.com/).
Like many free software games, the data and the engine are separate.

I've managed to build the engine.

The game uses a special program called "tdm_update" to fetch the game
data from mirrors.

Here is the official list of mirrors:

  http://mirrors.thedarkmod.com/

And here is the game data from one of the mirrors:

  http://mirror.helium.in-berlin.de/thedarkmod/release/

Question: is there a way in Guix to specify that the source is the whole
tree found at the URL?

If not, can anyone think of a way to handle this?

So far, the only idea I have is to use locally-declared inputs with
origins, like in the texlive-dvips package.

Thoughts?
