Comparable links for pkgs.org:

https://pkgs.org/search/?q=davegnukem

https://pkgs.org/search/?q=dave_gnukem

(In general I lean slightly toward preferring package spelling "davegnukem", but don't feel strongly about it.)

Dave Gnukem will be soon on Termux. Termux is a Linux environment and Terminal emulator on Android. So in short if you plug your keyboard (recommended) and start X11 server (TigerVNCServer or Termux X11) you can install Dave Gnukem from Termux User Repository.

Waiting for Merge :package:

EDIT: Merged

This is now done, thanks to the work of everyone who contributed to these, especially @matteobin but also all others. What next in terms of Linux packages? There are many Linux distros.
