Package: cytadela
Version: 1.1.0-4+b1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.2.2.

Hi,

I'm currently reviewing all the games in contrib & non-free to see
wether game-data-packager can help to make them easier to install.


I'm surprised that cytadela is in contrib but doesn't try
to download anything and works from the go.

It should be either in "main" or in "non-free",
that just does not makes sense.


After digging out, I see that the graphical sprites
included upstream are a rip of from the original Amiga rom.

https://www.myabandonware.com/game/citadel-7ki
https://sourceforge.net/projects/cytadela/
https://sources.debian.org/src/cytadela/1.1.0-4/data/obj/

If this data-extraction were scriptable,
this engine would have to be stripped of the files
in data/obj/ and would then indeed perfectly fit in "contrib".

The game being mostly unmaintained I have little hope.

In the current state I think this package is
unfit for inclusion in Debian and should be removed.


Greetings,

Hi,

As explained yesterday, I believe the graphical assets are free as explained in upstream's website and in the copyright file.

Since the severity is serious and hence the package will be marked for unwarranted removal, I'm closing this bug without waiting further.

Cheers!
Sylvain
