Hi, I have some questions regarding the packaging of Calligra for Debian. For now we have Calligra 2.6.1 in experimental.
– about copyright Debian requires to bulid a copyright files to know all the licences used. Using the licensecheck script, I got 21 different licenses for calligra, but some files are unclear : Some files like words/part/tests/TestTextFrameSorting.h have no mention of copyright. It's mainly the tests cases or some scripts in tools/script/. Should we assume it's the same license as in COPYING? The file tools/scripts/downloadMSOfficeDocuments.pl has a copyright mention, but without a licence. Should we assume it's the same license as in COPYING or is it non-free ? The file ./kexi/kexidb/sqlitedump/shell.c has a funny license, which may not be free: ** The author disclaims copyright to this source code. In place of ** a legal notice, here is a blessing: ** ** May you do good and not evil. ** May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others. ** May you share freely, never taking more than you give. At last, there is a typo in the copyright mention in ./kexi/webforms/view/default/Update.h , but it's not important. - about include libs Calligra contains embeed copies of some library, which are already packaged in Debian: - filters/words/msword-odf/wv2/ (http://packages.qa.debian.org/w/wv2.html) - kexi/migration/mdb/ (http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/mdbtools.html) - 3rdparty/kdgantt, provided by kdepim since 4.10 (currently in experimental). Debian forbid the embeeded libs, so should we use the external packages, or do you modified these libraries for calligra ? If you have any questions about the Debian packaging of Calligra, I will do my best to answer.
