I'll reach out to some FrozenSand people and see if I can't do anything to
maybe have a relaxed clause there for packaging. It seems other systems
pkg this, but they might just be 'I'll try this, and wait until a bomb goes
off' rather than making sure its allowed.

Okay, I'll probably strip the RUN_DEPENDS for now, and add a pkgreadme
with instructions on where to put the data files. Manual steps suck,
but at least with this one the only real important thing is to unzip
the distrubution file, and mv the entire q3ut4 directory to
${PREFIX}/share/urbanterror

I'll make sure I update the license markers with what you've found, thanks!
In regards to stripping the git revision from package name, I only included
it because its technically not the 4.2.023 release, but a snapshot of the
current repo (containing patches I submitted to make it happier on obsd).
"One day" their 4.3 release should be out and then we'd have a proper
release anyway, so if we don't care about keeping track of revision in
the pkg name i'll definitely turf that.
