Hi! This source package contains the following files from the IETF under non-free license terms: kdepim-3.5.5/kioslaves/sieve/draft-showalter-sieve-vacation-04.txt kdepim-3.5.5/kioslaves/sieve/draft-murchison-sieve-regex-06.txt kdepim-3.5.5/kioslaves/sieve/rfc3431.txt kdepim-3.5.5/kioslaves/sieve/rfc3028.txt kdepim-3.5.5/kioslaves/sieve/draft-martin-sieve-notify-01.txt kdepim-3.5.5/kioslaves/sieve/draft-degener-sieve-body-00.txt kdepim-3.5.5/kioslaves/sieve/draft-martin-managesieve-04.txt kdepim-3.5.5/kioslaves/sieve/draft-murchison-sieve-subaddress-05.txt kdepim-3.5.5/kaddressbook/xxport/samples/rfc2849.txt The license on RFC/I-Ds is not DFSG-free, see: * http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=199810 * http://release.debian.org/removing-non-free-documentation * http://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments The etch release policy says binary and source packages must each be free: * http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt The severity is serious, because this violates the Debian policy: * http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-dfsg There are (at least) three ways to fix this problem. In order of preference: 1. Ask the author of the RFC to re-license the RFC under a free license. A template for this e-mail request can be found at http://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments 2. Remove the non-free material from the source, e.g., by re-packaging the upstream archive and adding a 'dfsg' version name to it. 3. Move the package to non-free. General discussions are kindly requested to take place on debian-legal or debian-devel in the thread with Subject: "Non-free IETF RFC/I-Ds in source packages".
