Withdrawn the FreeArt license in my created logo.

Supplemented in 'd/copyright' about the program.

Thanks!

I still missing the explicit disclaimer that this is not to be confused with
the game PokeMMO.eu and the launcher is not affilitated with them except
that it is written for the game in mind. At least d/copyright should explain
that (as Chris said: Make d/copyright as verbose as possible.)
(d/copyright Disclaimer: field)

I can't work out a proposal because of time limitations right now, but
pleasu go forward and share your thoughts about it, so we can agree on some
text.

Good! But But the license is not a great choice.
It is not clear if it is acceptable for Debian as free license. I'd recommend
not to use this license but select one from the sets which have ben cleared as
DFSG. Why not using also the GPL for it like the rest of the package? This
would also solve the problem that you did not update d/copyright to reflect the
license of the images... For details about the FreeArt License see and the
thread linked within:

I hope I succeeded this time. :)

Sorry, in this part I'm learning, next time I'll pay more attention.

- d/control
  * Section changed to contrib/games
  * Changed long description: describing more about pokemmo-installer

I had to make changes separating 'PokeMMO Installer' and 'PokeMMO Client'

I added a wiki on GitHub and Salsa about PokeMMO Installer:

https://github.com/coringao/pokemmo-installer/wiki

https://salsa.debian.org/debiangames-team/pokemmo-installer/wikis/home

Removed the official 'PokeMMO Client' logo and created the 'PokeMMO Installer' 
logo with the added
FreeArt license.

Thanks!

You should have recycled that RFS bug, same for the ITP.. (by e.g retitleing)
But, ok, we can work with the new ones.. I've merged the ITP bugs already.

There are more changes than this... However, 
- we need to target contrib. It is not ok to go for main, so please change that 
back.
- the long description: I think something like the last sentence from my
  propsoal would help to transport the message that this package is not
  PokeMMO, but I'm not 100% happy with it myself, so I somehow
  understand that you did not embed it. But I think we need something
  to underline that the real thing is some other property.

Maybe: 
"PokeMMO is a product from PokeMMO.eu, please see their
website for details and further information."

- another question: The pokemmo.png .. Can you elaborate about the
  source of the image? The license could be troublesome...
