thanks for looking in to this, here are some comments I agree with what Johannes Schauer asked (who is the author, where is it from, what does this package actually do), and the short and long description should be updated accordingly. The first paragraph of the long description should be more informative to potential users. 1) I also don't like calling open source software "official" or "unofficial." It just is what it is. If it is just checking for library compatibilities, then you actually are playing the "official" (proprietary) game anyways. 2) Whether it is java-based or not doesn't really matter for someone installing the package (unless there is a non-java alternative, perhaps). 3) The mechanisms of checking for OpenGL working with Java7 doesn't really matter to someone wanting to play the game/ If the code is DFSG, but requires non-free content to be useful, it is at best contrib. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
