Woops, I forgot one other very important thing, the COPYING file included in this 
package says:
---------------------------------------------------------- Tremulous License --

Tremulous is licensed in two broadly separate sections: the code and the media.

The code is licensed under the GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE. This license is
contained in full in the file named GPL. Please be aware of the exceptions to
this license as listed below.

The media is licensed under the CREATIVE COMMONS ATTRIBUTION-SHAREALIKE 2.5
LICENSE. Please read http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/ to learn
more about this license. The full license text is contained in the file named
CC. Please be aware of the exceptions to this license as listed below.

--------------------------------------------------- Media License Exceptions --

All shaderlab (http://www.shaderlab.com/) textures (by Randy 'ydnar' Reddig)
are subject to the following license:

  Usage and redistribution policy: Textures may be freely downloaded, modified,
  and used in free maps, mods or total conversions provided this copyright
  notice is left intact and a link to Shaderlab is provided in the credits or
  read-me file. Other non-commercial applications are considered on a
  case-by-case basis via e-mail. All other usage requires written permission.
  Bulk redistribution or archival of the textures in any medium, digital or
  otherwise (except mapping packages for mods) is prohibited.

This non free exception no longer is valid. There has been some discussion about
this on debian-legal where it it claimed that the involved textures have been
relicensed / rereleased by Randy 'ydnar' Reddig under the same CC license as the
rest of the tremulous data. I know such a claim in itself is not good enough to
distribute so I've contacted Randy 'ydnar' Reddig myself and this was his reply:

---

I already released the Tremulous textures (I think) under a CC license so it
could be included with Debian. This should suffice for FC right?

Randy

Which unfortunatly is still a bit vague, but has made me believe that Debians
claim is valid. I've asked Randy for a more clear statement with regard to the
license, to have something sane to include into the SRPM. I myself concider not
having this statement a blocker, but I expect to receive it soon and wanted to
start the review process now.
