Package: vfu
Version: 4.10-1
Severity: serious

The file vslib/README contains "All files are under the GPL license".

In vslib/vsuti.cpp I read this :

  |  /* adler32.c -- compute the Adler-32 checksum of a data stream
  |   * Copyright (C) 1995-1996 Mark Adler
  |   * For conditions of distribution and use, see copyright notice in zlib.h
  |   */

I didn't find zlib.h in this package.  The file adler32.c in the package zlib
contains this :

  |  /* adler32.c -- compute the Adler-32 checksum of a data stream
  |   * Copyright (C) 1995-2011 Mark Adler
  |   * For conditions of distribution and use, see copyright notice in zlib.h
  |   */

The file zlib.h in the package zlib contains this :

  |  Copyright (C) 1995-2012 Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler
  |
  |  This software is provided 'as-is', without any express or implied
  |  warranty.  In no event will the authors be held liable for any damages
  |  arising from the use of this software.
  |
  |  Permission is granted to anyone to use this software for any purpose,
  |  including commercial applications, and to alter it and redistribute it
  |  freely, subject to the following restrictions:

  |     claim that you wrote the original software. If you use this software
  |     in a product, an acknowledgment in the product documentation would be
  |     appreciated but is not required.
  |  2. Altered source versions must be plainly marked as such, and must not be
  |     misrepresented as being the original software.
  |  3. This notice may not be removed or altered from any source distribution.

So at this point we know that vslib/vsuti.cpp is not GPL, so vslib/README is
not accurate.

Having a look at the other files in vslib/ I found that the file
vslib/getopt2.cpp contains this :

  |  /*
  |   *  $Header: /cvs/vslib/getopt2.cpp,v 1.2 2001/10/28 13:53:02 cade Exp $
  |   *
  |   *  Copyright (C) 1994 Arno Schaefer
  |   *
  |   *  AU: Auswertung der Kommandozeile, der POSIX-Version von getopt ()
  |   *  nachempfunden.
  |   *
  |   *  PO: ANSI C
  |   */

I don't know where that file comes from, and I don't find any license.  We
cannot assume that it's GPL because we know that vslib/README is not accurate.
So we don't have a permission to redistribute vslib/getopt2.cpp.

Regards,

Bart Martens
