Package: libsmi2-common
Version: 0.4.7+dfsg-0.1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.1
Hi!
libsmi2-common contains a lot of MIB licensed under a restrictive
license. I did not look at all of them but most of those under ietf
directory are licensed in the same manner as the corresponding RFC.
Those RFC are non-free:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=199810
http://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments
I will ask an etch-ignore tag for this bug for lenny since it is too
late for any correction.
Possible correction could be (a mix of):
- wipe comments and description of all MIB
- rewrite them and ship only essentials one
- move the non essential MIB to non-free
Non solution includes:
- don't ship them at all (the package will be unusable)
- ship the whole package in non-free (a lot of packages will go into
contrib and no support would be provided)
Another similar bug report will be filed against libsnmp-base that has
the same problem.

Source: libsmi
Binary: libsmi2ldbl libsmi2-dev libsmi2-dbg libsmi2-common
Architecture: source all amd64
Version: 0.4.8+dfsg2-1
Distribution: experimental
Urgency: low
Maintainer: Vincent Bernat <ber...@debian.org>
Changed-By: Vincent Bernat <ber...@debian.org>
Description:
libsmi2-common - a library to access SMI MIB information - MIB module files
libsmi2-dbg - library to access SMI MIB information - debugging symbols
libsmi2-dev - library to access SMI MIB information - development files
libsmi2ldbl - library to access SMI MIB information
Closes: 498476 558128
Changes:
libsmi (0.4.8+dfsg2-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Repack the upstream tarball to drop all MIB: those are licensed like
IETF RFC and therefore will be provided by a non-free/contrib
package. For the moment, we suggest libsnmp-base for this purpose.
Closes: #498476.
* libsmi2-common is now an empty transitional package (which suggests
libsnmp-base).
* Ship to experimental until we know the definitive name of the package
that will download MIB.
* Add a NEWS.Debian file to explain the change. We will change it later.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3.
* Add a patch from Jochen Friedrich to enhance smistrip. Closes: #558128.
