For the record: As a direct consequence of this bug, licensecheck testsuite now ignores some failures that occur only when using the Debian fork. I would prefer if you would acknowledge that you are doing a fork, by releasing the differently behaving project under a separate name, so that others can freely choose (by (build-)dependency) which to use. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
