Package: xmille
Version: 2.0-13+b2
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
Justification: Policy 4.5
Dear Maintainer,
I have been researching old terminal and X games recently, and realized
that much of the code from 'xmille' orignated from the terminal game
'mille', which is part of bsdgames.
Specifically, the following files are notably similar between the two
games:
comp.c
end.c
extern.c
init.c
mille.c & mille.h
misc.c
move.c
types.h
varpush.c
Many of these even contain telltale BSD version/date comments, even a
few not listed above that are common but extensively re-written.
However, all of the original source files contain the 3-term BSD
license, as follows:
* Copyright (c) 1982, 1993

This has been stripped out of all code in the xmille distribution.
Also, none of the included materials give credit to the original author,
Ken Arnold.
I'm not sure what the best solution is, exactly. Extensively patch the
source until it complies with the BSD license again?
Presumably, the copyright file needs to change at the very least.
