Description:
The package says it is GPL licensed whereas it is (upstream) licensed as Creative Commons Sampling Plus. This license does not compatible with GPL, as such you can't simply "convert" it to GPL

Additional info:
* openttd-opensfx 0.2.3-1


Steps to reproduce:
Open http://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/any/openttd-opensfx/ and see it is licensed GPL. Open http://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/opensfx/repository/entry/docs/license.txt and see it is actually licensed CCSP.
This task depends upon
