Package: fpc Version: 2.2.0-dfsg1-9 Version: 2.0.0-4 Severity: serious Thanks
As can be read in the changelog of the latest version the old source of fpc has a copyright infringment: - Possible CodeGear Copyright infringements in the source were reworked using cleanroom approach. Following the full discussion for the same issue in Ubuntu (discussed in LP bug 275688 [1]) it looks like upstream is now positive of the infringement. Upstream removed all old releases from their servers. Debian should probably seek for a similar solution or relicense (although the latter solution is said in [1] that it should probably never be mentioned) I know it is late for Lenny, but I think we should look into this ASAP. I will point debian-legal to this bug as well. Paul [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fpc/+bug/275688
