Package: faad2
Version: 2.5-1
Severity: grave

Hi,
currently debian/copyright mentions that the package is licensed under
plain GPL. This is apparently wrong as for example src/cfft.h state
(other files too):
[... GPL boilerplate ...]
** Software using this code must display the following message visibly
in or
** on each copy of the software:
** "FAAD2 AAC/HE-AAC/HE-AACv2/DRM decoder (c) Nero AG, www.nero.com"
** in, for example, the about-box or help/startup screen.

This is an additional restriction over the GPL that makes this code IMHO
GPL incompatible and as thus linking to the library might be a bit funny
licensing-wise. Please correct this in debian/copyright...

It would probably have been better to package the older 2.0 version or
some CVS snapshot before this ugly paragraph was added to the license as
for example the gstreamer plugin using this library is unable to fullfil
the license requirements...


Second problem I see is that the copyright holder is not mentioned in
debian/copyright. Please add this. Should probably be 
"Copyright (C) 2003-2005 M. Bakker, Nero AG, http://www.nero.com";

Bye
