Hi Sylvain,

You're right, Ardentryst's debian/copyright file needs to be modified
to account for the contributors of the game's sound files, but the
upstream author hasn't provided much information about the source for
those sound files, aside from the in-game credits and a COPYING.data
file in the source tarball (which does not provide any copyright
information aside from stating that Ardentryst's data, music, and
sounds are licensed under CC 3.0). In particular, years of copyright
attribution are missing, and the upstream author has neglected to
point out which sound files are copyrighted by which contributor(s).

Based off of what information I have, my proposed modification to
debian/copyright can be found at [1]; if that is insufficient, I'll
contact the upstream author.

Kind regards,
- Vincent
