--- Begin Message ---Package: license-reconcile Version: 0.9 I get several false positive from license-reconcile when using it to check the copyright file of the future zfs package. One of them look like this: Copyright mismatch: File config/depcomp: For copyright holder 'Free Software Foundation, Inc.' the years 1999-2000,2003-2007,2009,20102011 cannot be fitted into 1996-2012. at /usr/share/perl5/Debian/LicenseReconcile/App.pm line 222, <GEN0> line 3. The debian/copyright entry look like this: Files: config/* Copyright: 1996-2012, Free Software Foundation, Inc. License: GPL-2+ with autoconf exception And the header of the file in question look like this: # Copyright (C) 1999, 2000, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010, # 2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc. I guess the parser need to be extended to not remove the comma from the list when the list is spread across several lines. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
