Music and sound is non-free
===========================
Earlier versions of blobandconquer were released in Debian main with music and
sound, since it was though that they were in the public domain. However, it was
brought to the attention of upstream's main author that the music was not
necessarily in the public domain. The sound and music files have been
downloaded from various free online repositories, such as (but not limitted to)
modarchive.com. These repositories allow free use and redistribution of the
sound and music files, but not necessarily modification or commercial use.
Therefore, the music and sound in Blob and Conquer is not DFSG compliant, and
cannot be distributed in Debian's main section.
Since the game and graphics are licensed under the GPL v2, and since the game
is playable without sound and music, the game is now distributed in Debian main
without sound and music. The redistributable sound and music files will be
available in a separate package in Debian's non-free section
(blobandconquer-data-nonfree).
