Please don't. Contributors are not necessarily copyright owners.

Hi,
The simplest way is to modify automatically generated copyright file:
$ licensecheck -r --deb-machine . >> debian/copyright

Hi,
What is the simplest way to put all contributors into the Debian copyright file?
I know the hardest way is associate each with their corresponding
change files, but for popular projects, the Debian copyright file
would be unnecessarily HUGE.
Would this be acceptable? Especially for those

debian/copyright
You definitely still need to manually check the copyright file

Hi everybody,
I began to study the machine-readable debian/copyright file format [1],
with the plan to adopt it for my (current and future) packages.

I have a question, though.

I don't know how to understand that sentence.
If you are asking whether the mere presence of a ‘COPYING’ file, but no
explicit license grant, applies to files in the pack

I'm trying to build a package for irrtoolset

Dear mentors,
I wanted to ask about the debian/copyright file, I am currently working
on a package (openjpeg a jpeg2000 library) that has a long and
complicated copyright history. What i mean by that is there have been
many contributors over the years and therefor very few files have
