Package: storymaps Version: 1.0-1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 2.2.1
Hello Javier, it seems to me [1] that storymaps includes non-free files (src/org/json/*) released under the JSON license [2]. [1] http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/s/storymaps/current/copyright [2] https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2010/03/msg00064.html The package cannot be shipped in Debian main with these non-free files. The possible solutions I can think of are (in descending order of desirability): (A) contact JSON copyright holder(s) and persuade them to re-license the files under DFSG-free and GPL-compatible terms (well, this seems unlikely, given the final answer mentioned in [2], but maybe another try could succeed?) (B) replace src/org/json/* files with a DFSG-free and GPL-compatible equivalent, if any is available (tools/jsmin.py from libv8, which is under a GPL-compatible 3-clause-BSD license, was mentioned [3] during the debian-legal discussion, but maybe it's a completely different thing...) [3] https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2010/03/msg00071.html (C) remove src/org/json/* files by repacking the orig.tar.gz upstream source archive, as long as storymaps is able to still be significantly useful without those files... (D) move the package to the non-free archive I hope a satisfying solution may be found. Thanks for your time!
