I personally like to have the licenses listed first, as the reader than has a clear view of what he is expecting, before getting the details. However, I can live with both versions, so if it is too late to fix lintian than so be it. Greetings Helge P.S. In one of my packages I now switched because having to include an entire license makes it hard to read otherwise. -- Dr. Helge Kreutzmann deb...@helgefjell.de Dipl.-Phys. http://www.helgefjell.de/debian.php 64bit GNU powered gpg signed mail preferred Help keep free software "libre": http://www.ffii.de/
