Dear Aliaksei, your question is more suited for the debian-mentors@lists.d.o list, so I am transferring the discussion there. The Debian Policy's section 12.5 describes the requirements for the Debian copyright file. http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-copyrightfile Note that it is not required to list exhaustively which file names correspond to which license, and that years of publication for one copyright holder may be gathered together. If you want to browse many Debian copyright files, you can have a look at the following repository: http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/collab-qa/packages-metadata/ (More information about this project at http://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamMetadata ) Have a nice week-end, -- Charles Plessy Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
