I received this e-mail reply of Guus Sliepen:

"The sound issue is caused by licensing issues, not by any problem in the source
code, see /usr/share/doc/blobwars/README.Debian. Since a large part of the
original sound and music lacks any copyright and author information, it is
deemed undistributable by Debian, not even in non-free. Replacement music has
been found and a version of blobwars that contains it might be released in a
few months, sound is next.

If you wish to help finding replacement sounds, that would be great. Hans de
Goede <email address hidden> from RedHat is also involved in getting
free-as-in-speech music and sound for the Parallel Realities games.
Some information is on the wiki I have put up on the SourceForge pages:
