It'd be *so* much more useful if, instead of rejecting a package just because of this, it'd be accepted with a RC bug for the issue. This small glitch in a copyright file (which lacks a DFSG-compliant file, so still something fit for the archive) will cause the additional burden of: - adjust the copyright file, after checking that the rejection cause is actually valid - perform a new binary build on the uploader's own machine - wait in NEW for another amount of indefinite time - have another FTP master/trainee/person review this once again Please make the work of Debian developers/contributors easier, instead of putting artifical barriers for no reasons. I saw the above behaviour (i.e. reject a package just because of a missing GPL/LGPL file in copyright) way too many times, and IMHO it is not constructive at all. Thanks, -- Pino Toscano
