Thanks. I see it now... unfortunately I don't have realstudio yet, so
it's a little hard to read. :-)
In the linberryB.rbp file, you write:
Linberry Desktop Manager
Is an alternative to RIM Blackberry Desktop manager . It has been
designed for ubuntu, but maybe work on other Linux distributions.
Linberry was designed by Israel Marrero (PuntoAzul)
israel_marr...@hotmail.com and has released the first alpha in
December 2010.

LinBerry, RIM, BlackBerry, and even Tux are mentioned, but Barry is nowhere
to be seen, and there is no link to http://netdirect.ca/barry even in
the acknowledgements above. Please add an explanation that the low level
communication is done by Barry, and include the URL.
There is no copyright file in the .deb package where licenses are usually
mentioned. If you want a good starting point for one, you can find it
here:
http://repo.or.cz/w/barry.git/blob/HEAD:/debian/copyright
Even the man pages that do exist in the source tarball have been changed,
with no clarification as to the origin of the code. The pppob.1 manpage,
for example, renames the URL in such a way that it does not work anymore.
This is the case for many of the URLs that remain.
Why rename it and call it your own? Would you not be somewhat offended
if I did the same to you?
If the library was renamed back to Barry in your project, it should
be possible to make the linberry GUI work with even the latest Barry
library with little effort, and you could enjoy the upstream bugfixes
that come for free, based on the Barry community's efforts. I see that
you are using Barry 0.16, when Barry 0.18.3 is available.
It would be better if you joined us, and became part of the Barry community.
But you need to acknowledge our work in order for that to happen. I wish
to acknowledge your work as well, but it is difficult when it is all mixed
together and you claim full authorship of LinBerry while renaming our code.
