Package: libocamlgraph-ocaml-dev Version: 1.5-1 Severity: minor /usr/share/doc/libocamlgraph*/copyright says this: "Files: dgraph/* Copyright: © 2009 CEA License: LGPL-2.1

By "a publicly distributed version of the Library", we mean either the unmodified Library as distributed, or a modified version of the Library that is distributed under the conditions defined in clause 3 of the GNU Library General Public License. This exception does not however invalidate any other reasons why the executable file might be covered by the GNU Library General Public License." I think libocamlgraph should say 'LGPL-2 | other' and 'LGPL-2.1 | other' and list the exception as some other OCaml packages do. Also since there are quite a few OCaml packages distributed under LGPL-2.x + Linking exception shouldn't that combination be listed somewhere under /usr/share/common-licenses? -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.35-rc3-00001-g6bdebf9 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libocamlgraph-ocaml-dev depends on: ii ocaml-nox [ocaml-nox-3.11.2] 3.11.2-1 ML implementation with a class-bas libocamlgraph-ocaml-dev recommends no packages. libocamlgraph-ocaml-dev suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
