  alsa-driver still ships files which have beed removed from the Debian
  Linux packages because of DFSG violations.
  
  This are at least:
  * alsa-kernel/pci/cs46xx/cs46xx_image.h
  * alsa-kernel/pci/cs46xx/imgs
  * alsa-kernel/pci/korg1212/korg1212-firmware.h
  * alsa-kernel/pci/maestro3.c
  * alsa-kernel/pci/ymfpci/ymfpci_image.h
 
 I've had a quick check on these files and didn't found a clue about
 any licences? What sort of violation do they have? If we have to
 remove the files from source none maestro3|cs46xx|ympfi card will
 work.

We could add the affected firmwares to the firmware-nonfree source
package and let it build a new binary package firmware-alsa?

Cheers,
Moritz

I'll see what I can do.

Wrt to alsa-source, what's the point of the package anyway? This
might've been useful in Linux 2.4 days, but nowadays all drivers
should be present in the stock kernel package?

Cheers,
Moritz

I did not say license, I'd say DFSG violation. It violates against
DFSG ยง2, see http://www.debian.org/vote/2006/vote_004.
