I thought I had this, since it says the first license stanza defaults to "Files: *". I made it explicit now. Also, the source files with a copyright notice also include the authors of liblzma and the LZMA SDK, even though (as far as I can tell) it doesn't use any source from these things, so I left them out of the debian/copyright file. > > I have them at the bottom of debian/copyright, but I didn't see > > anything that said if or how they have to be separated... > > Have a closer read of DEP 5; it describes a header (describing the > package as a whole), and then a body with multiple stanzas.

I removed the extra non-DEP5 stuff at the top, and tried to tighten it up to strictly match what it says. There were some quirks, such as the required "Format-Specification" field not being present in any examples... I think that I've interpreted it strictly enough now that it should be correct. Here is the latest: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/python-modules/packages/python-lzma/trunk/debian/copyright Anything else I can do to the package?
