Package: texlive
Version: 2005-1
Severity: serious

underscore.sty as shipped in texlive has the following non-free license:
% Copyright 1998,2001 Donald Arseneau;  Distribute freely if unchanged.

However, I wrote to Donald Arseneau and he agreed to relicense this file
under the LPPL; including his mail in the debian/copyright file should
make underscore.sty distributable in main (and also permit inclusion in
tetex as well).  I've quoted his mail below.
