Package: mysql-dfsg-5.0 Version: 5.0.51a-11 Severity: minor Hi,
The various binary packages of mysql-dfsg-5.0 ship /usr/share/doc/*/EXCEPTIONS-CLIENT.gz The contents of this file are also contained in the file copyright in that same dir in accordance to Debian policy. Because the content is already in debian/copyright I believe that this file should not be installed separately in each of the packages but rather left out. It gets especially confusting because copyright and EXCEPTIONS-CLIENT.gz are of different versions and its unclear which one applies. On detailed inspection they turn out to be the same legally but that confusion need not exist in the first place. I think this is similar to but not detected by http://lintian.debian.org/tags/extra-license-file.html cheers, Thijs
