Hmm. I did wonder whether removing that would cause trouble.

Not sure whether patching deutex is the best approach. Symlinking
debian/tmp/doom2.wad (in the prboom build directory) to
/usr/share/games/freedoom.wad would at least restrict the damage to the prboom
sources. But I guess we'd need to check-and-possibly-symlink to a whole slew of
different IWAD names, depending on what was in the environment, to support
rebuilding without freedoom (but with a commercial IWAD). What a mess ☹

I'd quite like to replace deutex with something more modern one day. The IWAD
requirement is superflous nowadays.
