Package: jokosher Version: 0.11.3-1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 12.5
I think I checked the Jokosher tarball throughly, and found absolutely no reference to the fact that Jokosher would be GPL v. 2+. debian/copyright instead states so. Now: it's true that the GPL itself states that a GPL covered software not precising which version of the GPL applies can be assumed being released under any desired one (and notice I still wouldn't understand why really 2+). However, most files in Jokosher _do_ refer to the file COPYING, which contains the GPL 2, so I think this is a very clear reference to 2 (and not to 2+). Notice that file Jokosher/elements/singledecodebin.py _is_ GPL 2+, but it's taken from another project, so I wouldn't take it as a proof of 2+-ness of the whole program. This particular file is an exception... also missing in debian/copyright. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
