There are practical reasons which make advertisement clauses undesirable, but this does not mean that the BSD license is any less "accepted" than other free licenses.
OTOH you have a different problem: a four clauses BSD-like license is not compatible with GPL-licensed code, and this means that the package is not distributable at all. >http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2006/08/msg00201.html on >debian-mentors for discussion about it).
