You have fonts in both source tarballs and ship them in /usr/share/bzflag/fonts/ is nonempty in both the testing bzflag and the unstable bzflag-data package. (I'll not discuss that you shouldn't be shipping these fonts anyways but just find them on the system it runs on.) Surely, these fonts have copyright attached to them and hopefully some license. Now that I had to look at your packaging again: your -data-package misses Replaces/Conflicts with the old bzflag package, too, breaking upgrades, but that would be another serious bug to file.

I presume you mean the png image files? These are not fonts, but images. Fonts would have a ttf extension. Don't you agree?

(I'll not discuss that you shouldn't be shipping these fonts anyways but just find them on the system it runs on.) In the parantheses, I was indeed confused. Surely, these fonts have copyright attached to them and hopefully some license. I presume you mean the png image files? These are not fonts, but images. Fonts would have a ttf extension. Don't you agree? No. The fact that you use a bitmap representation of (the most common chars of) the font stored in an image doesn't change the fact that you are essentially shipping a version of the font and need to abide by its license and document copyright and license in debian/copyright. This is also borderline w.r.t. the requirement that everything in Debian must be built from source to be shipped in the .deb. Now that I had to look at your packaging again: your -data-package misses Replaces/Conflicts with the old bzflag package, too, breaking upgrades, but that would be another serious bug to file.

Package: bzflag Version: 2.0.10.20071115+nmu1 Severity: serious Hi Tim, the your debian/copyright is lacking. It needs to list all copyright/licensing information related to your package. In particular, you need to list the fonts copyright notice and license.
