It cannot be legally included. The license of Csound is non-free in
the Debian/Open Source (tm) sense, because it prohibits distribution
if it's not for "educational purposes". As distributions are either
commercial (Redhat, Suse,...) or require free licenses (Debian) they
cannot legally include Csound.

You can use iCsound, though, which is like Csound stripped of the
freedom-offending parts.
