Package: widelands Version: 1:17-3 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 12.5
Dear Maintainer, I noticed that Widelands' copyright file points to the wrong GPL: "This game is distributed under the GPL licence (to be found under /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL on a Debian box)." This leads to GPLv3, while upstream releases under v2. Strictly speaking, releasing under _the_ GPL allows users to choose any GPL ever published. I would propose: "This game is distributed under the GNU General Public License version 2, to be found under /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 on a Debian box." Also, the copyright file does not include the required pointer to where upstream source was obtained. Bonus question: so upstream distributes under GPLv2, this is clearly indicated in the source files. But is it clear enough, for the purpose of Debian distribution, that this also counts for media (pics, music, ...)? It does count for the media files, right? Thanks for maintaining, Steven. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages widelands depends on: ii fonts-freefont-ttf [ttf-freefont] 20120503-1 ii libboost-signals1.49.0 1.49.0-3.2 ii libc6 2.13-37 ii libgcc1 1:4.7.2-5 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 8.0.5-3 ii libglew1.7 1.7.0-3 ii liblua5.1-0 5.1.5-4 ii libpng12-0 1.2.49-1 ii libsdl-gfx1.2-4 2.0.23-2 ii libsdl-image1.2 1.2.12-2 ii libsdl-mixer1.2 1.2.12-3 ii libsdl-net1.2 1.2.8-2 ii libsdl-ttf2.0-0 2.0.11-2 ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.15-5 ii libstdc++6 4.7.2-5 ii widelands-data 1:17-3 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-13 widelands recommends no packages. widelands suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
