Cant run any Quake games

When I install Quake and launch it, a window pops up saying "Required data files are missing. Please use game-data-packager to build and install the data packages for Quake.". So I went into the terminal, simply typing "game-data-packager" to which I was greeted with...I don't even know. After a bit of reading I logged into root, re-opened the console and typed "game-data-packager -i quake". After all of the downloads were completed I logged back into my normal profile, and attempted to launch Quake again, and got the same message. Basically, I have no idea how to use "game-data-packager" Any help? Instructions on how to "...build and install the data packages for Quake." or simply how I'm supposed to use the packager?
