Severity: serious Package: cyrus-sasl2-mit Version: 2.1.19.dfsg1-1 User: debian-release@lists.debian.org Usertags: nonfree-doc rfc
Hi! Based on the package names, I suspect cyrus-sasl2-mit share the same source package as the cyrus-sasl2 package, and that the problem below might get fixed automatically when cyrus-sasl2-mit is updated to use the latest cyrus-sasl2 sources (see #365183), but as far as I can tell, it isn't guaranteed that this will happen automatically, hence this report. This source package contains the following files from the IETF under non-free license terms: cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/java/doc/draft-weltman-java-sasl-02.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-ietf-sasl-rfc2831bis-02.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2195.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc3174.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-newman-sasl-c-api-01.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-ietf-sasl-saslprep-04.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc1939.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-ietf-sasl-rfc2222bis-03.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-ietf-sasl-crammd5-01.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2243.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2444.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2831.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2222.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2289.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-ietf-sasl-plain-03.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2595.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2945.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc1321.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-ietf-sasl-anon-02.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2104.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-burdis-cat-srp-sasl-08.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-ietf-sasl-gssapi-00.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/draft-murchison-sasl-login-00.txt cyrus-sasl-2.1.19.dfsg1/doc/rfc2245.txt The license on RFC/I-Ds is not DFSG-free, see: * http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=199810 * http://release.debian.org/removing-non-free-documentation * http://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments The etch release policy says binary and source packages must each be free: * http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt The severity is serious, because this violates the Debian policy: * http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-dfsg There are (at least) three ways to fix this problem. In order of preference: 1. Ask the author of the RFC to re-license the RFC under a free license. A template for this e-mail request can be found at http://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments 2. Remove the non-free material from the source, e.g., by re-packaging the upstream archive and adding a 'dfsg' version name to it. 3. Move the package to non-free.
