Sauerbraten game content has a commercial use restriction that
prevents it from being included in Fedora. It has been explicitly
listed in the "will not package" list though third party repos can and
probably will package this. Maybe we can package a subset and use the
autodownloader to pull in more content optionally.

I saw claims in the SMC website that they have cleaned up their
content in recent versions. Game similarity by itself shouldn't
prevent a game from being included.
Similarity shouldn't but SMC has all the original artwork redrawn, it is
not new artwork, remember those semi transparent papers you used in your
early school days, which you would lay over a drawing and then copy the
drawing like that? SMC is very much like that.
I just took a look and they have finally replaced the main character by
something original. but the enemies and the level blocks still look like
straight copies (they are not they are redrawn, but is that enough to
claim its an original work?)
We could ask Spot to be sure.
Spot, can you look into this?
