I'm glad that this got sorted out but I wanted to point out that you are actually too demanding of yourself in terms of what to put in debian/copyright. You don't have to document the copyright holders of each and every file. What truly matters is to properly distinguish the different licenses and the files concerned by each license. Listing of copyright holders doesn't have to be exhaustive (it's impossible for big projects) and it's perfectly acceptable to group them for a set of files that share a common license. See how the linux packages uses: Files: * Copyright: 1991-2012 Linus Torvalds and many others License: GPL-2 Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog ◈ Debian Developer Discover the Debian Administrator's Handbook: → http://debian-handbook.info/get/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
