I don't see the logical justification for this statement. Our compliance with the GPL does not rely on considering source and binary packages as a single entity. The GPL explicitly permits us to treat them as two separate entities and distribute the source separately (which is what we do). -- 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".
