I guess that what I'm arguing is that we're telling the user how to get the GPL by adding the pointer to common-licenses, which in essence supersedes for Debian packages the need to go get it from the FSF. If someone wanted to provide both sets of instructions, that's certainly okay, but I don't see a reason to require it. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
