Package: emacs23
Version: 23.2+1-1
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
As is beginning to become widely reported, emacs's upstream tarball is
distributing GPL-licensed generated grammars without their original
source code:
./lisp/cedet/srecode/srt-wy.el
./lisp/cedet/semantic/wisent/js-wy.el
./lisp/cedet/semantic/wisent/javat-wy.el
./lisp/cedet/semantic/wisent/python-wy.el
./lisp/cedet/semantic/grammar-wy.el
./lisp/cedet/semantic/bovine/scm-by.el
./lisp/cedet/semantic/bovine/make-by.el
./lisp/cedet/semantic/bovine/c-by.el
This has been the case since upstream version 23.2.
More information is available in the original report on the emacs mailing list:
* http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2011-07/msg01090.html
* http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2011-07/msg01106.html
* http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2011-07/msg01155.html
Per Richard Stallman (in the third link above):
> The bison grammars MUST be included in Emacs if the parsers are. The
> bison grammars are the source code. If the Emacs release contains a
> compiled program and not its source code, anyone redistributing that
> release by itself would violate the GPL.
Debian is in violation of the GPL unless the original source code for
these generated files can be distributed as well. In any case, however,
a new DFSG-repackaged version with the offending generated files removed should
be pushed out immediately, to limit further harm.
After that, discussion should be made with the ftp-masters and original
grammar authors as to how to best repair this breach of the GPL.
