I was thinking of trying to package Angband. I grabbed the source and a
spec file/patches used by Mageia. I got SDL working but X11 version
doesn't run under wayland. Curses version complained about not finding
a font. Obviously I can work through these but I have a question about
licensing.
Angband is GPL (or the angband license if you prefer). Some items in
the angband tar.gz are not. It explains which ones aren't. Mageia's
patch disables them so they are not installed (at least in theory I
haven't actually confirmed it). Mageia uses a source package of
%{name}-%{version}-libre.tar.xz. I'm guess they may have taken the
angband tar.gz and removed items to create it. Would Fedora require the
same? Can we ship a srpm with non-commercial content like the sounds in
angband?
