Yeah, I saw the discussion on the -devel list, and I was the one who pointed
out the fonts in the new egoboo being freeware-ish over at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=799778 ;)

But I'm wondering to what extent does this apply?
The wiki article only mentions if the content is legally non-*distributable* as
far as I can tell, and I get the impression that *freeware* (or e.g. CC-BY-NC)
would not fall under the prohibited code umbrella?

In addition, there is this notice regarding game *data*
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines#Shareware

In general the documentation is really flaky regarding the separation of the
source rpm and the binary rpm, or if there would be any difference there at
all?
The license *info* seems to only apply to the binary rpms...

I will be re-repacking the source, anyhow, since it's unclear, for the time
being, better safe than sorry.

I'm keeping the Enet lib code (not binary lib) in there though (it is clearly
MIT-free), since upstream has warned that Enet shouldn't be treated as a
separate lib (and asked for it to be used embedded, which I'm not doing), so
I'm guessing that at some point it might be necessary to make use of it, if
we're unlucky, better be prepared.
