Package: mutt
Version: 2.0.5-4.1
Severity: important

Hi,

mutt depends on libsasl2-2, which is licensed under CMU's BSD-4-clause license and covered by the RSA-MD and OpenSSL licenses. All of them have an advertisement clause in place, which is known to be incompatible with GPL.
There are several possible solutions to this problem:

1) Build without SASL support.

2) Support my request at #996892.

3) Ask upstream to add a license exception for libsasl2-2, similar to the one that was required by Debian for OpenSSL for a long time.

Thanks for your consideration,
Bastian
