Hi Phil, > I believe this is the problematic section of debian/copyright? I also > found https://wiki.debian.org/DFSGLicenses#Public_Domain helpful. I would like the section of this game to be "contrib/games", but because of this problem I left it as a "non-free/games". > Files: data/* > Copyright: not applicable > Author: 2004 Studio Pixel <amaya.pixel@gmail.com> > License: public-domain > This software was written by Daisuke Amaya also known by his art name 'Pixel'. > . > You absolutely can't use these in anything commercial; the work is not subject > to copyright in any jurisdiction. > . > This file is in the public domain.

I'm sorry for my mistakes made with "sponsorship-requests", in the next packages I'll be more careful. :( Closed 903872 & 905984 in d/changelog.
