Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-189 Severity: minor Tags: patch Dear maintainer,
Hi! By chance I found that debian/examples/crontab2english.pl is actually dual licensed like Perl (GPL1+ and Artistic), stated in line 169-174 in that file: This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. So I made a patch to correct the d/copyright entry (cron.patch). So there you go, everyone is happy. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.12.10-amd64 (SMP w/128 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages cron depends on: ii cron-daemon-common 3.0pl1-189 ii init-system-helpers 1.68 ii libc6 2.40-6 ii libpam-runtime 1.7.0-2 ii libpam0g 1.7.0-2 ii libselinux1 3.7-3.1 ii sensible-utils 0.0.24 Versions of packages cron recommends: ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-transport-agent] 4.98-3+b1 Versions of packages cron suggests: pn anacron <none> pn bat <none> pn checksecurity <none> ii logrotate 3.22.0-1 pn supercat <none> Versions of packages cron is related to: pn libnss-ldap <none> pn libnss-ldapd <none> pn libpam-ldap <none> pn libpam-mount <none> pn nis <none> pn nscd <none> -- no debconf information *** cron.patch diff --git a/debian/copyright b/debian/copyright index 3c8824f..c6ec81a 100644 --- a/debian/copyright +++ b/debian/copyright @@ -38,7 +38,7 @@ License: GPL-2+ Files: debian/examples/crontab2english.pl Copyright: 2001, Sean M.
