Package: gnome-themes-extras
Version: 0.9.0-5
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.2.1
gnome-themes-extras's copyright file indicates that the package is under
the GPL, but a non-GPL Firefox icon is included in
usr/share/icons/Nuvola/scalable/apps/firefox.svg. Additionally,
gnome-themes-extras is in main and the Firefox icon is not modifiable.

As the icon was made from scratch, I don't think there is any licensing
issue. As the copyright states, the icon is GPL.
The only issue here is a trademark one, but as the icon is used to
reference firefox itself, I'd have guessed it is allowed. I'm CCing
debian-legal, as this has been discussed to death and I guess someone
will have more clues than myself.
Thank you and sorry. On closer inspection I can indeed see some
differences with the original Firefox logo. Assuming that you are right
about gnome-themes-extras's version not being a variant but simply a
high-quality imitation, I'm closing my report as invalid.
As for the trademark issues, I do not know the role of
gnome-themes-extras well, but assuming that the logo is used as an icon
for Debian's "Firefox", I expect this to be problematic since Debian
ships an altered Firefox that even has to be renamed to avoid trademark
infringement.
