Hi,

I would like to know what is the legal status of derivative work, based on
(likely) copyrighted images which are publicly and widely available
(pristine or modified) on internet.

I have made a package for GemRB, which re-implements an engine for Baldur's
Gate game serie, and I have created some icons based on the games logos.
There is little doubt to me that this is not acceptable in a Debian
package, but I wanted to know more about it and how much it is infringing
the games owner rights.

For reference, the icons are available here:

Best,
