Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-05-11 Severity: wishlist * Package name : doc-linux-nonfree Version : 2003.05-1 Upstream Author : Various LDP authors * URL : http://en.tldp.org/ * License : Various, distributable but non-DFSG-free Description : Linux HOWTOs and mini-HOWTOs (non-free)
I'm preparing a non-free branch of the doc-linux packages, which I currently maintain. It has been noted in the past that the licences on a number of documents from the Linux Documentation Project are not DFSG-free: typically these disallow commercial use, modification, or both. The doc-linux-nonfree-html and doc-linux-nonfree-text binary packages will contain these documents, and the existing doc-linux-html and doc-linux-text binary packages will contain only DFSG-free documents. The copyright files of both the free and the non-free packages will be automatically generated from a directory of licences found during the licence audit I've recently completed.
