Source: zlib
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

a) the zlib 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1 copyright file claims to be based on sources from zlib-1.0.4.tar.gz which is obviously wrong.

b) the Files-Excluded field is not up-to-date for zlib_1.2.11.dfsg.orig.tar.gz. The listed contrib/testzlib is in the DFSG sources, but the now-removed win32 directory is not listed as Files-Excluded.

The win32 directory is how I came here: I'm building for Mingw from the Debian sources, which now fails. Is the removal of the win32 directory neccessary? I do see the restrictions established in win32/DLL_FAQ.txt. However, I don't think these restrictions are removed by removing this file. They may apply to the DFSG sources as well, even with the win32 dir removed.

Best regards
Kai
