Hi Paul,

thanks for your elaboration.

I don't consider the mpak file format such a critical issue, as long 
as the file contents are declared free and we have a free tool to 
handle it. Currently, the mpak.py script does not include a license, 
but we could ask upstream for one. IIRC you said you were in contact 
with him?

Then we could repair the data files in the Debian package on the fly 
and finally upload a new package.

Please remember that the game is licensed under the zlib license, 
which does not require a "prefered form for modification".

I am not that much interested in joining upstream, but more in fixing 
what we already have in Debian. However, I'd by happy to help if 
there's anything I can do.
