Package: egoboo-data
Version: 1:2.8.1-1.1
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
Justification: Policy 2.1
Dear Maintainer,
It appears that egoboo-data contains some likely non-free audio,
and a lot with an unclear license, which is likely non-free as well.
$ for i in $(find -iname *.ogg); do ogginfo $i | grep right && echo $i; done

using ogginfo on separate files yields more info
IF we assume that those headers are correct (I do not know if all of them are,
the music ones should be though, see below), there's quite a bit of a problem.
It MIGHT be the case that they are incorrect and all sound effects are indeed
original content created by the Egoboo team, though I think that's unlikely...
The Westwoods studios stuff *may* be "freeware" at best.
The Sounddogs stuff is NOT ARReserved, but likely some sort of freeware (they
provide both gratis and paid sounds), encumbered by a EULA:
http://www.sounddogs.com/htm/licensemx.htm
Maybe the source isn't actually Sounddogs though, so maybe if the originals
were hunted down...?
Adam Frechette appears to be a composer which created free user content for
modding Newerwinter Nights, e.g:
http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Sounds.Detail&id=127
There is no mention of license anywhere, though as per
http://egoboo.sourceforge.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=548&p=40332#p40332
they are suppossedly "open content" (whatever that means).
That thread has some more info regarding music that might be relevant as well,
it would seem that there is a small set which is created by the Egoboo team, so
those pieces should be fine I'm guessing.
A large portion of the sound effects appears to be long-lost things which we're
unlikely to get license clarification for at all :(
