In the AUTHORS file you write "used with permission" for the "photo". I don't see this mentioned under the Sound Effects. Do you think there is a copyright problem or not? If there is a problem, I would probably just drop the package from Debian, I don't think its worth the effort to create new images and sound files for this old package. thanks, Christian
