Package: iceweasel
Version: 17.0.10esr-1~deb7u1
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
Justification: Policy 2.2.1
Dear Maintainer,
While reviewing the licenses used in wine-gecko (basically Firefox 21
in the version I'm reviewing), I came across
other-licenses/bsdiff/bsdiff.c which uses the "BSD Protection
License", which is non-free (see
https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2003/10/msg00344.html for a
discussion of the license).
bsdiff has since been relicensed using the 2-clause BSD license, see
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/9/usr.bin/bsdiff/bsdiff/bsdiff.c?revision=231812&view=markup
for the current version.
I'm not sure bsdiff actually ends up being used in the build or the
resulting binaries...
Regards,
Stephen

It's built but it is neither used nor shipped.
