In the interests of moving things forward in a constructive way, I have uploaded a new version of the package with the requested changes. Someone else already filed an RC bug against licenserecon (#1129997) where the copyright file has the same issue (except much worse than here). The handling of that bug can then instruct us on what the correct solution is for this package. -- Arto Jantunen
