Package: base-passwd Severity: normal Tags: patch Version: 3.5.48 Hi,
There is a problem with the current copyright file. The machine-readble copyright format standardizes on the pseudo-license public-domain instead of PD for public domain files. Also, the Copyright field is missing from the paragraph. A patch is enclosed to deal with these issues.
From: Bastian Germann <b...@linutronix.de> Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2020 12:24:53 +0200 Subject: d/copyright: Fix public-domain paragraph The machine-readble copyright format standardizes on the pseudo-license public-domain for public domain files. Also, the Copyright field is missing from the paragraph, so convert the X-Notes to a pseudo-Copyright notice. --- debian/copyright | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/debian/copyright b/debian/copyright index 096b0d8..989c003 100644 --- a/debian/copyright +++ b/debian/copyright @@ -10,8 +10,8 @@ License: GPL-2 Files: passwd.master group.master -License: PD -X-Notes: Originally written by Ian Murdock <imurd...@debian.org> and +License: public-domain +Copyright: PD; Originally written by Ian Murdock <imurd...@debian.org> and Bruce Perens <br...@pixar.com>.
