Re: Bug#321669: enigma: Copyright violation for menu.s3m



Hi,

This is an s3m, screamtracker file. You can modify it quite easily with
so called trackers. We also have one as package: Soundtracker (although
I don't know if its does .s3m, the docs only mention .xm and .xi)
You could claim that this is a script, i.e. a program, to play music!

Anyway, I'm going to upload with the music removed for now.

No, because this is still non-free according to DFSG. We need the public
right to modify it in order to meet the DFSG.
