Package: mysql-5.5 Version: 5.5.31+dfsg-1 Severity: serious User: [email protected] Usertags: origin-ubuntu saucy
See: https://blog.mariadb.org/mysql-man-pages-silently-relicensed-away-from-gpl/ It seems that Oracle silently changed the licensing in the documentation; at least the manpages, in 5.5.30->5.5.31). The manpages shipped by the source package now contain copyright wording that is clearly not DFSG compliant, since modifications are prohibited and there is no explicit exception to permit distribution of patches. So debian/copyright is also now wrong, since it lists man/* (implictly through *) as GPL-2. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
