Ah yes, that's right. Since prboom updates so infrequently, I guess that code has not been exercised in years. I should probably adapt it into a "get-orig-source" debian/rules rule. Actually we should probably rebuild prboom.wad upon every package build, just to make sure the code doesn't rot further.
That sounds like a very good idea.A few weeks ago we have implemented something similar for the funguloids package, which also needed to get its data file rebuilt (not for DFSG-related reasons but because of compatibility issues with ogre). The result is in pkg-games SVN and currently stuck in the NEW queue.
The downside is, we'd have a lot more Build-Depends: deutex, sng, imagemagick, gsfonts-x11 and freedoom. And the latter depends on "boom-engine", so we might get stuck in a circular Build-Depends. :/
