Lenny interdiff attached. Note that as alluded to in the
copyright hunk, the orig tarball is modified by removing
./musics/metabolist and all files therein.  No other
changes are needed to build the package.

+This version of freedoom has been modified from the original in order
+to remove material that has subsequently been identified as violating
+copyright.
+
+At the time of writing , the notice of
+copyright violation was posted at
+<http://www.doomworld.com/vb/freedoom/46675-musical-plagiarism-in-freedoom/>
+
+The affected files were anything under ./musics/metabolist within the source.
+
+Simply removing this directory is sufficient to convert the upstream source
+tarball to be DFSG-compatible. No further modifications are necessary
+to build the package.
