The end result of kindness is that it draws people to you.

There isn't any guarantee of security support for non-free at least, and
I'd guess contrib as well.

No, that's not source code. To be in main, you must be able to build
from source using only tools in main.

I have a similar question.
I have a package [1] (gh - Generic Haskell [2]) with a GPL licence which
builds from generated sources with the tools available in main. The
generated sources and the source from which it is generated are in the
upstream tarball, but to get the generated sources from the

Hi all,
I have been thinking about packaging DBDesigner, a GUI tool for database
design. It's GPL but it requires Borland Kylix to compile. I've read
the policy doc, but am still confused. Is this contrib, non-free, or
not suitable for inclusion in Debian?

Hello again,
I changed the debian/rules of the flac source package, adding a
--disable-fast-install at the parameters passed to the configure script
and it fails! Well, fails, it doesn't link the libraries as expected. So
that's good news, I found the solution to my first problem.
The weird
Hello,
I unfortunately deleted all my control files in an attempt to make a
"fresh" start, but created a very simple debian/rules so as to test if
the --enable-fast-install solved my problem, here it is :

# -*- makefile -*-
