Package: kfreebsd-5
Severity: normal
The following lines are printed by kFreeBSD when boot starts:
"Copyright (c) 1992-2005 The FreeBSD Project.

any sense. As for FreeBSD, I'm not so sure. Perhaps we should keep it, but
still indicate that this copyright doesn't refer to the whole system as it
did on FreeBSD.
On FreeBSD, it also don't apply to the whole system. I think it applies

problem nor a bug, that's why I am decreasing the severity to wishlist.
