This really is a useless bug report. How can anyone try to duplicate it?
You do not tell anyone who your internet provider is, How you try to get

Sorry, but that means that the concept does exist. The binary of a program
is a totally different animal from the original. Not a shred of similarity
in expression exists between the two. If I grep phrases from the

together the special exception can not be used.
So again we end up with the conclusion that the "hello world" program
requires that both hello world source and libc must be GPL. And the
same argument works for mkisofs linked against libschilly and libscg.

Thus, is it correct that the issue centers around mkisofs, a program which is

this where the dispute lies?
If so
believe there to be any legal
impediment to the distribution of the software. Debian has made clear that
they believe that there is such an impediment. What, in as few words as
possible, is the impediment?
