by default, prboom-plus uses the built-in OPL3 emulator for music
playback which doesn't even require a soundfont.

This issue is at most critical if you explicitly select the fluidsynth
backend for music playback, and even then the most critical part will
be that no music will be playing if this soundfont is missing.

So, what you see printed in the terminal is an error message in the
initialization code for a music backend that is not selected by
default. ;)

I'll add 'timgm6mb-sountfont' to Suggests in the next upload as the
package already runs out-of-the-box as is and without this package -
hence I also lower the severity.

Thanks,
