Well, I would suggest just symlinking /opt/stratagus/share/stargus, that worked great for me,
and for me the size of the folder after extraction is 640MB, so yeah, good thing I moved it...

Edit: Brainfart - All Starcraft data is on CD in Install.EXE. And that is not a small file.

Original Starcraft I needs CD to run. It use files from INSTALL.EXE too... So installing Starcraft is not needed!
INSTALL.EXE is like self extracting MPQ archive. For more about MPQ archives see wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPQ
Startool (part of Stargus) can read MPQ files. It extract data from INSTALL.EXE and then convert it to Stratagus format.

First you need to move old directory to MyDocs and then creating symlink. And you must run these commands as root (not as user)
Mine is 73.6 MB (77,198,171 bytes)
