Policy 22.8 is not ambiguous, which is the release that added the option to not include all copyright information in debian/copyright (previously all copyright information was required). When this change was made, they specifically said: “Note that there is no change to the requirement to copy *all licensing information* into / usr/share/doc/PACKAGE/copyright.” I do agree that without this statement in 22.8 it would be ambiguous. -- Soren Stoutner so...@debian.org
