AFAIR it was removed at the end of the potato freeze because it had a known security hole with a known fix but upstream didn't release a new version and the old copyright did forbit the distribution of modified binaries. The new licence as quoted in the last mail doesn't seem to have this problem (although I think it doesn't comply to the DFSG because it's a licence in the style of the old BSD licence _with_ the advertising clause). cu Adrian -- Nicht weil die Dinge schwierig sind wagen wir sie nicht, sondern weil wir sie nicht wagen sind sie schwierig.
