Could you explain to me how the lack of those two things is a possible DFSG problem? I assume that this is based on the first, but that seems like quite a stretch to me. The same assurance, for what good there is in it, could be drived from a statement in debian/copyright saying "I checked every file in this package for DFSG licensing problems." Also, no, I definitely do not think that a possible DFSG problem is an RC bug. I think that an *actual* DFSG problem is an RC bug. A possible DFSG problem is only a possible RC bug. Surely this is obvious? -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
