 Note: the present ticket is compiled from an on-going discussion on the
 following merge-request:
   https://salsa.debian.org/games-team/game-data-
 packager/-/merge_requests/79

 While refreshing GOG-related rules in the game-data-packager project
 (https://salsa.debian.org/games-team/game-data-packager) I noticed that
 starting the GOG-installed (English audio version) of `Broken Sword 1`
 (the legacy version available as an extra on the "Disector's Cut" version)
 with a non-English language requested from the command line (ex: `scummvm
 --language fr`) scummvm would fail to start the game with the error
 message:
   Error running game: Game data not found
 While this game only has English audio, it does contain several other
 text-only languages: cz, de, es, fr, it.

 Up to scummvm 2.6.1 it was possible to request those languages, although
 requesting non-available languages resulted in a segfault.

 Is this change intentional and/or unavoidable ?
 Is it a mistake in the game's detection entry ?
