Package: libvncclient1 Version: 0.9.14+dfsg-1 Severity: serious Hi,libvncclient1 depends on libsasl2-2, which is licensed under CMU's BSD-3-Clause-Attribution license and covered by the RSA-MD license. They have clauses in place, which are known to be incompatible with GPL (libvncclient1's license).There are several possible solutions to this problem:1) Build without SASL support. The affected symbols GetTLSCipherBits, HandleSASLAuth, and ReadFromSASL are not used by any of the reverse dependencies.2) Support my request at #996892.3) Ask upstream to add a license exception for libsasl2-2, similar to the one that was required by Debian for OpenSSLfor a long time. Thanks for your consideration, Bastian
I have now (sorry for the delay) forwarded this issue upstream and suggested to them adding the license exception as proposed under (3).
I'd suggest ignoring this for the bookworm release as I presume that Christian Beier (upstream author/maintainer of src:libvncserver) will be cooperative on this issue. Let me know if this works for you that this gets fixed only for trixie.
