Dear Filip and Kartik, Here is a copyright review for gwibber_1.2.0+bzr349-3.dsc. I found that the information about the file jquery.js is missing in debian/copyright. Moreover, jquery.js is present in six copies in Gwibber's source, which will bring inconvenience in case of security updates, and more importantly jquery.js is not distributed with its original upstream sources, see ‘http://code.google.com/p/jqueryjs/source/browse/#svn/trunk/jquery’. Since it is distributed under a dual GPL|MIT license, this is legally acceptable, but it does not fit well the spirit of Debian. Note that jQuery is shipped in the Debian libjs-jquery package, so there would be an easy way to solve the problem of code duplication (although it would be safest to doublecheck with Upstream if Gwibber is not dependant to a particular version of jQuery). Here are additional issues: The translation are Copyright (c) 2009 Rosetta Contributors and Canonical Ltd 2009 (but some are missing information). If the gwibber.1 manpage is really released under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 license, then you have to include a complete copy in debian/copyright. But maybe it would be better to cross-check with Upstream if they really meant this? The current manpage is anyway so trivial for the moment that it is probably not copyrightable… You mention the GPL V2.1 in debian/copyrighty, but surely meant V2.
