I may be in error here and I am sure more correct information will be supplied if so. License issues are classified as Release Critical (RC) and thus the 'moreinfo' tag. Many thanks for looking at the issues, pedantic and other and making what you see as appropriate changes. I have tagged the package as 'confirmed' and hope a Debian Developer (DD) will soon have hte time to review and possibly sponsor this update into Debian. Regards Phil -- Donations...
