Hi. Please unblock package chiark-utils.
Alternatively, please decide that #773650 is not RC. #773650 is:
The chiark-utils package is missing a formal copyright licence for
nntpid. I know all the authors personally and they intend
distribution, but this permission ought to be properly documented in
the VCS history and in the Debian package.
Note that the offending script `nntpid' is (due to another bug) not
currently actually shipped in any .deb. But it is in the source
package.
The debdiff is below. The changes are:
- Add a copyright message to nntpid and the perl module
it uses, and a corresponding stanza to debian/copyright
(#773650).
- Update the copyright year for git-cache-proxy and mention
that in debian/copyright.
To check that the rebuild has had no deleterious effect, I have
debdiffed the .debs, and they all say:
File lists identical (after any substitutions)
No differences were encountered between the control files
Thanks,
Ian.
