Package: lintian Version: 2.5.0 Severity: normal Dear Lintian maintainers,
in my package embassy-phylip, there is a comment saying that the package is not GPL despite a copy of the GPL is distributed with the sources. This triggers the copyright-should-refer-to-common-license-file-for-gpl error. http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/non-free/e/embassy-phylip/current/copyright When Lintian starts to take advantage of DEP-5, perhaps you can consider to exclude Comments fields from the copyright-should-refer-to-common-license-file-for-gpl check.
