Severity: serious
Package: syslinux
Version: 2:3.55-2
User: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Usertags: nonfree-doc rfc
Hi!
This source package contains the following files from the
IETF under non-free license terms:
syslinux-3.55/doc/rfc5071.txt
The license on RFC/I-Ds is not DFSG-free, see:
* http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=199810
* http://release.debian.org/removing-non-free-documentation
* http://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments
The etch release policy says binary and source packages must each be free:
* http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt
The severity is serious, because this violates the Debian policy:
* http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-dfsg
There are (at least) three ways to fix this problem. In order of
preference:
1. Ask the author of the RFC to re-license the RFC under a free
license. A template for this e-mail request can be found at
http://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments
2. Remove the non-free material from the source, e.g., by re-packaging
the upstream archive and adding 'dfsg' to the Debian package
version name.
3. Move the package to non-free.
General discussions are kindly requested to take place on debian-legal
or debian-devel in the thread with Subject: "Non-free IETF RFC/I-Ds in
source packages".
Thanks,
Simon
