 I think that Jerome is right, and we have a problem with that file. It is =
not=20
the same problem than we can have with GFDL docs or the problem of which is=
 "the preferred
source form" for images and sounds.

 Here that sound is licensed only for being used as hold music for Asterisk=
, nothing else.=20
You couldn't even use it as dialtone for Asterisk, as I interpret the file.
=20
 The only solution I see is removing that sound from upstream sources. Anyw=
ay I am
CCing debian-legal for advise on this. Attached is README.fpm file.

 Cheers,
