A licensing issue was discovered that conflicted with Red Hat's Open Source
policy. The author prohibits distribution of modified sources.
Supposedly, the Debian Project has been granted some sort of wavier, but
none of the source distributions for Seyon have any mention of this. I'm not
exactly sure how that works. I think it violate the GPL's clause against
further restrictions, actually. It certainly runs contrary to Debian's own
DFSG. (Funny how Seyon gets in but KDE doesn't.)
