Package: lsb-base
Version: 3.2-19
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.1


Please investigate if files included in lsb-base conform to DFSG. A lincense
change to GPL would be better suited for Debian.

Policy / 2.1. The Debian Free Software Guidelines:

     ...
     Derived Works
          The license must allow modifications and derived works, and must
          allow them to be distributed under the same terms as the license
          of the original software.

     Integrity of The Author's Source Code
          The license may restrict source-code from being distributed in
          modified form _only_ if the license allows the distribution of
          "patch files" with the source code for the purpose of modifying
          the program at build time.  The license must explicitly permit
          distribution of software built from modified source code.  The
          license may require derived works to carry a different name or
          version number from the original software.  (This is a
          compromise.  The Debian Project encourages all authors to not
          restrict any files, source or binary, from being modified.)
