In fact the whole thread here has continued on as a result of that very
reason why Debian did not update it. I'll cite it again for you[2]
"The Distributed Checksum Clearinghouse source carries a license that is
free to organizations that do not sell filtering devices or services
except to their own users and that participate in the global DCC
network."
and, this is in their LICENSE or just the comments?
what about mysql. maybe debian can distribute it, but many users can't.
seems debian can distribute DCC, many users can't.

For OEMs, ISVs, VARs and Other Distributors of Commercial Applications:
OEMs, ISVs, VARs and other distributors that combine and distribute
commercially licensed software with MySQL software and do not wish to
distribute the source code for the commercially licensed software under
version 2 of the GNU General Public License (the "GPL") must enter into
a commercial license agreement with Sun.
seems your frustration with the author is the problem, not the license.
maybe at the time, (and depending on when that was) there were external
pressures on the author that complicated his ability to dialog.
