Package: pam
Version: 0.99.7.1-5

Hi!  The copyright file contains:


  ALTERNATIVELY, this product may be distributed under the terms of the
  GNU General Public License, in which case the provisions of the GNU
  GPL are required INSTEAD OF the above restrictions.  (This clause is
  necessary due to a potential conflict between the GNU GPL and the
  restrictions contained in a BSD-style copyright.)

  ...

  On Debian GNU/Linux systems, the complete text of the GNU General
  Public License can be found in `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL'.

Which version of the GPL does this refer to?  The file in
common-licenses is now actually GPLv3, but I suspect that Linux-PAM
intended to use GPLv2 or GPLv1 here.  In any case, I think the license
of the package isn't clear.

I looked in upstream sources, but couldn't find a copy of the GPL at
all, so this problem may be due to upstream.  Still, it would be good to
fix it.
