Hi,
updating bsnes to the latest version requires shipping a few firmware
files [1]. Upstream deems them legal to distribute based on a printer
ink firmware precedent, and it seems that debian distributes them as
well. Not shipping them will provide a package which does not work.
IANAL but I don't think we should ship these firmware files given than
Nintendo is not very emulator friendly.
Moreover, the inclusion in Debian seems a mistake to me, because they
do not list these files in the copyright file:
http://packages.debian.org/sid/bsnes
