Public bug reported:

When looking at the Debian changelog at http://metadata.ftp-
master.debian.org/changelogs//main/c/chocolate-doom/chocolate-
doom_2.2.1-2.1_changelog under "chocolate-doom (2.1.0-2) unstable;
urgency=medium" they state that the package has moved from contrib to
main to fix a prior bug.

When comparing to the Ubuntu packages, this means that the chocolate-
doom package for Ubuntu 15.10 and above should be moved to either main
or universe due to Debian moving it from contrib to main. Why is this
labeled as multiverse (non-free) to begin with? It is licensed under the
GPLv2 meaning that it should be as free as it gets.

Please take a look at this considering that other Ubuntu derivatives
like Trisquel (https://trisquel.info) may leave this package out due to
the current multiverse status.

** Affects: chocolate-doom (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
