Alternatively, the field is simply out of date. Thanks Chris for reporting this. Actually the case is more complicated: files matching SRC/mc64ad.* in upstream tarball are indeed non-free, but have been correctly removed in the repackaged tarball (hence I'm downgrading the severity). However, a new (free) SRC/mc64ad.c is regenerated through a patch (debian/patches/mc64ad-stub.patch) in order to make the package compile despite the removal of the non-free files. I guess you detected the free stub version of the file. Still the debian/copyright is correct. So maybe this bug can be closed? Or do you have a suggestion on how to better handle that case?
