It seems that main authors did not make such work :-( 
I will try to have a look for those files (css) or see with authors. 

Regarding included javascript librairies, expected versions are still in 
experimental. I contacted maintainer and he told me he should move them to sid 
in a short time. 

So i suggest to wait for those libraries to be moved to sid and I will update 
scripts to use them instead of packaging them with gbrowse. 
If this takes a too long time, I will keep them included for the moment...

I will not have time today, but I will also try with pbuilder later. 

Dear Olivier, 

I did not have time to try pbuilder. Instead, I inspected the source files of 
Gbrowse, and documented their copyright notices and licenses in 
debian/copyright. That was tedious and time-consuming, but it is required 
before uploading to the Debian archive. 

Default license is GPL version 1 or superior, or Artistic version 2. This 
license is not in /usr/share/doc/common-licenses, so it needs to be in 
debian/copyright. A large number of files are still GPL-1+ or Artistic (not 
version 2), and I grouped them in the same paragraph after collating their 
copyright notices. I also found some files whose license is MIT or LGPL. 

Importantly, I found files that are obviously not the work of the main authors, 
and that do not have a license. Of them, one is probably free (readseq.c), but 
for the other, htdocs/css/dropdown/default_theme.css and 
htdocs/css/dropdown/dropdown.css, there is not evidence that they are 
redistributable. We need the confirmation directly by the authors or through 
the Gbrowse developers. 

Can you or somebody else doublecheck that I have not forgotten something ? 

Have a nice day,
