Package: suck Version: 4.3.2-7 Severity: minor Tags: patch The copyright file for suck refers to sucknews.org for further information, but the domain has obviously been acquired by a domain parking service, now containing mainly sex links (since about 2007, with the page being offline since at least 2003).
Perhaps the paragraph referring to sucknews.org should be removed. Furthermore, "suck" has been replaced by "Small newsfeed from an NNTP server with standard NNTP commands." in the copyright file, leading to strange punctuation. That could be fixed, too. Patch attached.
