Package: gdm-themes
Version: 0.6.1
Severity: serious
Distribution: stable
Section: main


Hello,

This package includes several modified versions of the Debian open logo
with "Debian" which the license is not compliant with the Debian policy.

The license of the Debian open logo with "Debian" says:

  "This logo or a modified version may be used by anyone to refer to the
  Debian project, but does not indicate endorsement by the project."

  see http://www.debian.org/logos/index.en.html


whereas the Debian policy ยง2.1 (aka DFSG) says:


  "License Must Not Be Specific to Debian

   The rights attached to the program must not depend on the program's
  being part of a Debian system. If the program is extracted from Debian
  and used or distributed without Debian but otherwise within the terms
  of the program's license, all parties to whom the program is
  redistributed must have the same rights as those that are granted in
  conjunction with the Debian system."

  see http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html
