 Eternal Lands is a FREE MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role
 playing game).

Could you provide a link to the QTPL license? I'm not sure if you mean
the QPL [1], If you do, take into account that, AFAIK, it is not clear
whether it is DFSG-Free or not, and also that it is not compatible
with GPL, and thus you shouldn't be linking, directly or indirectly,
statically or dynamically, with any GPLed code.

Do you know if the server part of the game is also available?

Greetings,
Miry

Thanks to Gonéri for providing that.

No, the server part of the game is closed source.

This is my first try at creating Debian packages.  Overall, I'm getting
a bad feeling about this whole exercise.  I have already made
eternallands and eternallands-data packages and uploaded them to
mentors.debian.net. These ITP bug reports are something I did not
understand I needed at first so apologies if I've got all this back to
front.

I did wonder if there would be issues with the licences but thought at
least the client code would be OK.  Can these issues be resolved or
should I forget the whole thing?

Thank you all for your feedback,
Paul Broadhead

Hey, it´s OK, don' t worry, you´re doing it OK, I just wanted to know :)

We´ll try to find out, no problem :)
