I think this bug violates Policy 12.5, not 2.2.1 if CC by-sa 2.5 can be upgraded to CC by-sa 3.0 and then meets DFSG. The point is the incorrect information in debian/copyright. For now, please update debian/copyright as follows: - include the upstream statement quoting from http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/edrdg/licence.html - mention that the Debian package is distributed under CC by-sa 3.0 according to section 4.b of CC by-sa 2.5 - include a verbatim copy of CC by-sa 3.0 quoting from http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/legalcode Thanks, -- Tatsuya Kinoshita
