Package: mozilla
Severity: serious

Mozilla violates against 12.5 of the Debian Policy.

The package does not include the license (NPL and MPL in this case) in
the debian/copyright file. Only standard licenses which are defined in
the section 12.5 are allowed to be "linked" instead of quoted.

"Every package must be accompanied by a verbatim copy of its copyright
and distribution license in the file /usr/share/doc/package/copyright."
...
"Packages distributed under the UCB BSD license, the Artistic license,
the GNU GPL, and the GNU LGPL should refer to the
files /usr/share/common-licenses/BSD, /usr/share/common-licenses/Artistic, 
/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL, and /usr/share/common-licenses/LGPL 
respectively, rather than quoting them in the copyright file."
