Package: star
Version: 1.5a57-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.2.1 -- DFSG issue
In the upload of 1.5a57-1, the license was changed from GPL to CDDL
(with choice of venue being Berlin, Germany). The acceptance of this
license by Debian is still undecided [1] (at least to the best of my
knowledge).
However, forcing a german jurisdiction upon everyone installing this
package without warning seems incacceptable to me for a package in main.

While I disagree with the outcome, I'll -done the bug, since I appear
to be in the minority here.
