That is exactly what I thought when I read your first comment. Moreover, if you compare it to something like mplayer, mplayer is completely worthless without any video/audio files. It can't create anything from scratch.

Anyway, if someone was looking to play doom, they would presumably already have wads, would know what a wad is, and realize that prboom is just a wad player. If someone was looking to play freedom, they would simply install the freedoom package without knowing what prboom was. The name prboom is misleading enough as it is, so if someone was installing it they probably already read the description and know what they're doing.
