Package: childsplay
Version: 2.6.2-1
Severity: serious
Hi!
I just installed childsplay and checked it out because I want to include
it in the Debian Junior tasks. (Debian Junior is a pure blend targeting
kids and youth.)
When I tested a few applications in the menu I realized that there are
some non-free data in the package.
Hi, my name is Stas Zytkiewicz and I'm the author of childsplay.
Thank you reporting these issues.
In the new 2.6.2 release I've made the following changes.
My quickly formed tentative list:
* An image of Vault Boy from the Fallout games, which are very nice
but nontheless non-free
/usr/share/childsplay/CPData/good_en.png
/usr/share/childsplay/CPData/thumbs.png
/usr/share/childsplay/CPData/thumbsup.png
The "thumbsup" image is replaced with an image from openclipart.org.
"good_en.png" is a copy of thumbsup.png and thumbs.png is no longer present
in the latest and prior release.
* Sounds from the pacman inspired game are from the rock n' roll classic
I Feel Good by James Brown
/usr/share/childsplay/CPData/PackidData/feelgood.ogg
It's replaced with a free sample from the "freebies" section of
http://www.samplephonics.com
and are also probably sampled from Pacman
/usr/share/childsplay/CPData/PackidData/waka.wav
/usr/share/childsplay/CPData/PackidData/walk.wav
Not true, it's of course inspired by the pacman sound but the length of
the 'waka'
is 0.17 seconds and the length of the 'walk' is 0.08 second and are
sound effects.
It's not the original pacman sound and I'm surprised that someone would
think those
very tiny sounds files could be the original pacman sounds.
* A sound from The Simpsons, where Homer shouts wohoo. Classic sound
byte, but non-free
/usr/share/childsplay/CPData/wahoo.wav
Not true, it's an recording of *me* shouting wohoo and then altered a bit
with audacity filters.
The copyright file states that these files should be GPL-3+, but that is
surely not the case.
Note that I have not made a detailed license analysis of the entire package
contents and that there might be more non-free data.
Perhaps, but it's an illusion to think one can check every image or sound
in this day and age where images and sounds are copied and distributed
numerous times on the internet.
Either remove the data, or, better, replace it with free images and
samples.
