The same applies to GFDL and LGPL.
I made that argument and lots of people disagreed with me. I don't think this is something we can impose with Lintian until you can build consensus within the project; many people believe this reference to be just fine for a package that's covered under "or any later version" terms. If you want to pursue this, the bug should probably be reassigned to debian-policy, since that's where any specific policy should be documented. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
