I have tried your wormux package and I have a few problems to report
(some of them should be reporrted upstream)  :->

There are missing files:
/usr/share/games/wormux/weapon/uzi_impact.png
/usr/share/games/wormux/weapon/skip_turn/skipturn_ico.png
/usr/share/games/wormux/weapon/share/large_impact.png - larger_impact.png
exists, 'though

Debian package issues:
- Make the game depend on ttf-dejavu or ttf-freefont; make a simlink to the real
font. It would be better if font choice would be made according to the
language (some languages don't have glyphs in DejaVu ;-).
- The diff.gz file is actually a .diff file (you will have to generate again
  the diff, because the md5sum will not match as gzip adds a time stamp)
- create links for the missing files or add dummy images


I have also translated the game, but that's an issue for upstream and
the Romanian team needs to review it.
(As a convenience, I have attached two patches: one withe the
modifications for upstream and one with both the upstream and Debian
specific changes); use them if you feel that you could make use of my
patch to the Debian specific issue.
