Package: x11proto-gl-dev Severity: serious Justification: Policy 2.3 The copyright file contains a copy of the license notices from the top of the header files. So far so good. HOWEVER, those notices do not contain the actual licenses. They merely refer to them by reference:
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/FreeB and http://www.sgi.com/software/opensource/glx/license.html Policy requires that an actual verbatim copy of each license be included in the package. Neither license is in fact included in the package. (This is also quite dangerous; if those websites ever vanish, we have *no* license.) The FreeB license is available upstream only in two rather inconvenient formats: Postscript and Microsoft Word. Nevertheless, including the Postscript version is far better than the current situation. Unfortunately, it is not entirely clear that we actually have permission to redistribute the text of the FreeB license. Does anyone have a contact at SGI? This bug is independent from the bug regarding the freeness of these licenses. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
