I am the author of dkopp. I do not understand the legal issues involved, but I agree to change the license, trusting that you know what you are doing.
I changed the license as follows: Upstream-Name: dkopp > Upstream-Contact: Michael Cornelison <mkorne...@gmail.com> > Source: https://kornelix.net > > All files copyright: > Copyright 2007-2024 Michael Cornelison <mkorne...@gmail.com> > > All source program files license: > GNU General Public License 3.0 or later > https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html > > All other data and image files included in the source distribution: > Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 International > https://creativecommons.org/licenses Is the last paragraph even necessary? I will make a new release available shortly. I plan to include a small technical change. regards Mike Cornelison On Sat, Apr 19, 2025 at 2:49 PM <atzli...@debian.org> wrote: > Hi, > > 在 2025/4/19 17:06, Sven Geuer 写道: > > Hi, > > > > On Sat, 2025-04-19 at 13:57 +0800, xiao sheng wen(肖盛文) wrote: > >> Hi, > >> > >> Please CC to me. > >> > >> I'm doing ITA dkopp #987089 [1], when I update to new upstream > >> version upstream/8.1, > >> I find copyright has some changes: > >> > >> > https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dkopp/-/blob/master/doc/copyright?ref_type=heads#L12 > >> > >> It say: > >> > >> All other data and image files included in the source distribution: > >> Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 3.0 Unported > >> https://creativecommons.org/licenses > >> > >> CC-BY-NC-SA-3.0 is not obey DFSG[2], right? > > > > Right.
