Hello Jérôme, Thank you for reporting the updated version. I have taken a quick look and the new upstream tarball needs some license clarification before it will be distributable as per the DFSG. For example, the soundbank beneath ./TuxGuitar-resources/ merely says that it was "contributed," but doesn't clarify the distribution license. Furthermore, I think we'll run into problems with it not being in a "preferred form of modification." Similarly, parts of the TuxGuitar-android tree is GPLv2 instead of LGPL, but I believe it can simply be excluded from a DFSG tarball. > Any plans to package it? I can try, but I welcome help. I think the first thing to do is determine whether we need/want to try to distribute the soundbank (via a contrib package) and have the tuxguitar-jsa package suggest that. Looking at the popcon graphs [1], the -jsa package isn't nearly as popular as either -alsa or -oss, so maybe it's preferable to get 1.3.x packaged without it?
