You're definitely *not* encouraging me to help. Being impolite with potential external contributors does not seem to be a good strategy... I don't even use BMPx, but I care about Debian abiding by its Social Contract. That's why I spoke up and expressed my opinion on how this bug is being dealt with. > > Both BMPx upstream and the author of the icons are cool with the current > situation. The issue is that some icons included in the package do not comply with the DFSG. The package is in main, so this is a serious Policy violation. That's an issue from Debian point of view, not necessarily from upstream's standpoint... You are the Debian maintainer of the package, so it's up to you to fix the bug or else move the package to non-free. You could get help from other people, but, as I said above, being rude does not usually encourage people to contribute... -- http://frx.netsons.org/progs/scripts/refresh-pubring.html New!
