Source: coreutils
Version: 8.32-4.1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy violation
Tags: patch
The GFDL version of the published package version is 1.3, not 1.2 as claimed by
coreutils.copyright.
I have attached a patch that places a machine-readable copyright file in
debian/copyright
instead of referencing the *.copyright files of (some non-existing) binary
packages.
The GFDL-NIV-1.3 license boilerplate is replaced by one in
coreutils_8.32.orig.tar.xz.
