Subject: gq: GPL license is not compatible with OpenSSL License
Package: gq
Version: 1.0.0-3+b1
Severity: grave
gq seems to be released under a GPL license [1] and it links against
libssl0.9.8 [2]. which is released under OpenSSL License and the original
SSLeay license, which are not compatible with the GPL [4] [5]. Thus, the
resulting binary is not redsitributable at all.
You could try linking against gnutls [6] instead of libssl.
Greetings,
Miry
