Coalescing entries can be done by 'scan-copyrights' or 'cme update dpkg- copyright' (provided by cme and libconfig-model-dpkg-perl packages) lua files are not scanned by default (yet), so these tools needs a bit of help: $ echo '--- check: suffixes: - lua' > debian/copyright-scan-patterns.yml Then run 'scan-copyrights' or 'cme update dpkg-copyright' For more details, see https://github.com/dod38fr/config-model/wiki/Updating-debian-copyright-file-with-cme All the best -- https://github.com/dod38fr/ -o- http://search.cpan.org/~ddumont/ http://ddumont.wordpress.com/ -o- irc: dod at irc.debian.org
