Hi, according to [1] [2] [3] FDL with the "no invariant" section is not 
considered DFSG.

So the package won't pass the new queue.

there is no problem in backporting it, but we prior need to make it dfsg and 
pass the new queue.

When the package will enter testing, a backport will be possible (assuming the 
rdeps are in jessie)


sorry for my bothering, but this is really a showstopper.

cheers,

G.

Upstram maintainer was kind to apply patches and release GNU Complexity
1.3. Unfortunately, after that release problem with FDL versions is
still not fixed. Maintainer claims, that FDL 1.3 text dominates one line
in header and think it not worth trouble to release new version just
because of it. In 1.4, whenever it would be, problem will vanish.

So I beleive, GNU Complexity is ready to enter sid. What should I do to
make it enter backports?
