[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/build/debian/_qa/mmake-2.2.1$ ls -l GNUGPL.TXT LICENSE -rw-r--r-- 1 ola ola 14822 2001-02-12 23:42 GNUGPL.TXT -rw-r--r-- 1 ola ola 280 2001-02-12 23:42 LICENSE [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/build/debian/_qa/mmake-2.2.1$ My reference comes from that GNUGPL.TXT in the source. The LICENSE file is a bit short but the GNUGPL.TXT file covers everything just as it should. It just has an uncommon name, that is all. I can not see anything wrong with this. If you read the debian copyright file, you can see that I refer to that file instead of the file LICENSE. Or do you still think I did something wrong here?
