Source: openjpeg
Version: 1.5.1-1
Severity: normal

Hello and thanks for maintaining this package in Debian!

The debian/copyright file states, in part:

| Files: applications/common/opj_getopt.c
| Copyright: © 1987, 1993-1994, The Regents of the University of California.
| License: BSD-4

and then quotes the 4-clause BSD license with the so-called OAC
(Obnoxious Advertising Clause, clause #3 in the 4-clause BSD license):

|  3. All advertising materials mentioning features or use of this software
|     must display the following acknowledgement:
|     This product includes software developed by the University of
|     California, Berkeley and its contributors.

This file is copyrighted by The Regents of the University of California.
If it comes from some version of a BSD distribution, I think that
the OAC may be dropped, thanks to the global re-licensing statement
that may be found at
ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change

Please consider modifying the debian/copyright file accordingly.
I think that this would clarify that the package is indeed
GPL-compatible.

Thanks for your time!


P.S.: Please note that the machine readable format prescribes the names
      BSD-2-clause, BSD-3-clause, and BSD-4-clause (rather than BSD-2,
      BSD-3, and BSD-4)!
      Please fix the debian/copyright file...
