You are looking at the package description of wesnoth-core, *not* of
wesnoth in jaunty:

I am not really sure why you call the music a "critical" component, it
isn't needed at all? It is nice to have of course, but "critical" is
something completely different.

... and they aren't anymore since the jaunty release because jaunty
comes with the complete suite (minus the server) when installing the
wesnoth package.
Or does gnome-app-install only offer wesnoth-core for installation but
not wesnoth itself? I'm not on an ubuntu system myself so I can't check
that part.
