Hi Andreas, Good catch! Unfortunately, README.txt of TraceTuner says: The TraceTuner Software (Copyright 1999-2003, Paracel, Inc. All rights reserved.) (the "Software") is covered by US Patent #6,681,186 and is being made available free of charge by Applera Corporation subject to the terms and conditions of the GNU General Public License, version 2, as published by the Free Software Foundation (the "GNU General Public License"). http://tracetuner.cvs.sourceforge.net/tracetuner/README.txt?revision=1.2&view=markup http://www.google.com/patents?id=XYESAAAAEBAJ&dq=6,681,186 Do you know what consequences it can have on its pacakging for Debian ?
