Package: glade-2
Version: 2.6.8-1
Severity: normal
The Glade copyright file apparently confuses "copyright" (as in
"copyright holder", like "Copyright (C) 2005 by Justin Pryzby") and
"license". It lists the GPL header and disclaimer text under the
"Copyright:" heading.
It should probably say Copyright (C) 19XX by Damon Chaplin.
Additionally, it would be nice if it detailed the license under which
the output "source" code is available.
I believe that the output source code is not govererned by the GPL,
since it is not outputting some part of Glade, but rather arbitrary (and
short) GTK library calls. The relevent section is the paragraph
immediately before Section 1 of GPLv2:
... the output from the Program is covered only if its
contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent
of having been made by running the Program). Whether that
is true depends on what the Program does.
