Package: gaim-otr
Version: 3.0.0+cvs20060530-3+fake.1
Severity: serious
User: lintian-ma...@debian.org
Usertags: no-copyright-file
Justification: Each binary package has to include a plain file
/usr/share/doc/pkg/copyright
Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 12.5 (Copyright information) for details.
,----[ 12.5 Copyright information ]
| Every package must be accompanied by a verbatim copy of its copyright and
| distribution license in the file /usr/share/doc/package/copyright. This file
| must neither be compressed nor be a symbolic link.
|
| In addition, the copyright file must say where the upstream sources (if any)
| were obtained. It should name the original authors of the package and the
Debian
| maintainer(s) who were involved with its creation.
|
| Packages in the contrib or non-free archive areas should state in the
copyright
| file that the package is not part of the Debian GNU/Linux distribution and
| briefly explain why.
|
| A copy of the file which will be installed in /usr/share/doc/package/copyright
| should be in debian/copyright in the source package.
|
| /usr/share/doc/package may be a symbolic link to another directory in
| /usr/share/doc only if the two packages both come from the same source and the
| first package Depends on the second. These rules are important because
| copyrights must be extractable by mechanical means.
|
| Packages distributed under the UCB BSD license, the Apache license (version
| 2.0), the Artistic license, the GNU GPL (version 2 or 3), the GNU LGPL
(versions
| 2, 2.1, or 3), and the GNU FDL (versions 1.2 or 1.3) should refer to the
| corresponding files under /usr/share/common-licenses,[92] rather than quoting
| them in the copyright file.
|
| You should not use the copyright file as a general README file. If your
package
| has such a file it should be installed in /usr/share/doc/package/README or
| README.Debian or some other appropriate place.

You filled the bug http://bugs.debian.org/552761 in Debian BTS
against the package gaim-otr. I'm closing it at *unstable*, but it will
remain open for older distributions.
For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/559399. That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed and suggestions of possible replacements.
Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.
Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
