serverity 380259 wishlist thanks The Debian Policy does not say that the source package have to contain debian/copyright file. The YADA packaging tool generates the /usr/share/doc/<PACKAGE>/copyright file based on informations from debian/packages file.
The debian/copyright file could be compiled at build time and saved in source package, so I don't close the bugreport, yet, and I'll forward the report to the yada package, later.
