The _licenses_ of the various components of Debian main should not prevent you from exporting it to US-embargoed countries, crypto and all. If you find any _license_ that tries to deny you that right, the inclusion of that sofware into Debian was a bug, which we urge you to report through our bug tracking system. The government and legal authorities of wherever you live might place their own restrictions on what they allow you to do; this however has nothing to do with Debian per se, and we cannot offer you advise about that. You should instead request advice from an attorney familiar with your local laws. Oh, and the U.S. might take offense of your exporting to various countries, too, even if you don't live there. Ordinarily you wouldn't be arrested until you choose to travel to the U.S. voluntarily, but there are some recent alleged precedents of U.S. operatives extradicting supposed criminals from third-party countries. -- Henning Makholm "Check the sprog." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
