--- Comment #2 from Link Dupont <l...@sub-pop.net> ---
Thank you for the review! This raised a couple questions when I was examining
the issues.

1) FreeOrion appears to bundle libGiGi
FreeOrion bundles libGiGi. There is an external libGiGi project, but during my
research, I found that Debian supports bundling libGiGi with their freeorion
package. This excerpt from their README.source file:

Bundled GG (libgigi) library:
 At the moment GG is not feasible to maintain separately:
  * It is used exclusively by freeorion.
  * FreeOrion maintains a fork of GG in FreeOrion's source tree.
  * FreeOrion's GG fork is better maintained and needs less patches.
    * For example the original libgigi library doesn't build with gcc-4.7
      (requires gcc-4.6) while from FreeOrion's source tree
      it builds fine with gcc-4.7 and doesn't need the "vector.patch".
  * GG is not a proper library (more like a plugin) and therefore
    not suitable for packaging as a standalone libgigi(-dev) package.

Would I need to submit a bundle library exception to the FPC for this?

2) FSF address incorrect

I noticed a rpmlint warning about an incorrect FSF address. When I looked at
the COPYING file shipped by upstream, it does have the correct address. The
only difference was a comma (,) inserted between the ZIP code and the country.
I feel like ignoring this lint error is okay, since the address is correct,
just formatted funny.
