Bug#847338: flight-of-the-amazon-queen: non-free restrictions in license conditions

[Ben Finney]

Source: flight-of-the-amazon-queen
Version: 1.0.0-1
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
Justification: Policy 2.1.1, 2.1.6

The license conditions from the copyright holders restrict
distributing the work for a fee:

    2) You may charge a reasonable copying fee for this archive […]

It is unclear what the copyright holders would consider a “reasonable
fee”; regardless what that limit would be, it is a restriction on the
fee that may be charged for redistribution.

    3) You may not charge a fee for the game itself. This includes
    reselling the game as an individual item.

Restrictions on charging a fee for the work violate DFSG §6 and
arguably §1.

Works in Debian may not be encumbered by such restrictions, according
to DFSG §1 and §6.
