Package: fanwor
Version: 1.16-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Music is ineligible for inclusion in main and is not
 properly attributed in debian/copyright

Dear Maintainer,

The music for fanwor located at /usr/share/fanwor/sounds/backgrnd.mod,
while a jazzed-up remix, is unmistakably the theme tune for Nintendo's
The Legend of Zelda which has not been released by them under a
DFSG-compatible license.

Additionally, the author of the remix is left unattributed in the
package's copyright file. Opening /usr/share/fanwor/sounds/backgrnd.mod
in a tracker such as milkytracker or simply viewing it in a hex editor
reveals this embedded message:
```
ZELDA REMIX
BY MSG (C) MAR 1998
ORIGINAL VERSION BY:
TOODELOO / DHS AND...
     3LE / COMA
```
Judging from https://demozoo.org/music/105555/, it appears this music
originates from a demoscene production which debuted at the OrlandoJam
event in 1998.
