You can't mix -NC- licenses with GPL. You can't have them in Debian proper, too. The most you can do is to put the graphics and data in non-free, then the code in contrib, at least unless some free graphics+data exist. The sound, being indistributable, cannot be included at all. -- // If you believe in so-called "intellectual property", please immediately // cease using counterfeit alphabets.
