  install process still copies from src/* because of the .install files
  used for menu items, this seems like something which could be done prettier.
 
-Notes on the license and consequent packaging oddities:
- The Red Eclipse license only allows redistribution of all game data,
- (including bits which otherwise are not redistributable) if the only change
- done to the tarball is recompression "using different archival formats
- suitable for your OS (zip/tgz/deb/dmg)"
- Because of this, the redeclipse-data binary package includes everything
- from the original "tarball" (svn repo, as is the case here), _including_ the
- source code, precompiled binaries etc.
- 
- The redeclipse and redeclipse-server binary packages gets by under the
- license of the source (Zlib) and enet ("MIT"/Expat). I have also created a
- new icon (GPLv3) since converting any of the redeclipse icon bases into an
- xpm is disallowed as per the license.
-
- Similar to the icon using the trademark "Red Eclipse" is probably disallowed
- unless in conjunction with the "unchanged tarball", but this is ignored for
- now.
-
 TODO:
 * Write manpage for server
 * The ENet network library might be appropriate to split off to a separate
   package?
-* Bug upstream about licensing, which may in practice not correspond to their
-  intent.
