Hi Michael, Down there is the Debian bug tracking system, and also in the TeX Live maintenance team, we're having problems with your LaTeX class for "computational complexity" articles. Indeed, the main dtx file states that the whole work is under LPPL, but the preamble of the derived files states "you are not allowed to distribute this file".
This is a contradiction, since the LPPL allows to distribute the generated files, and a problem, since if the generated files can actually not be distributed by Debian, TeX Live or MikTeX etc, it means the end users must always install the package by hand, which is a pain for most of them. I believe you didn't really want to prevent the distribution of the generated files, so would you please consider changing the license statement in order to make it unambiguous? For example, the recommended way of using LPPL for such a work is to state that your work is under LPPL like you do in your dtx, then define which files constitute the work in your dtx's preamble, like, for example: % This work consists of the files pig.dtx and pig.ins % and the derived file pig.sty. and then, in each generated file, just write something like: % (C) 2008 A. U. Thor % This is a generated file. % See pig.dtx for license information. More info can be found at http://www.latex-project.org/lppl/, and I'd be happy to further discuss the subject with you if you want.
