I do not care what is written in the file copyright. Fair enough. Granted, if you are more concerned with, then be without a program. Who does not interfere with religious prejudices, mantras Stallman, horror stories about bugs and stuff ubuntu - please use this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~ivan1986/+archive/dropbox The package works fine in Debian. --- Иван Борзенков ivan1...@list.ru signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Your package appears to violate that for the same kinds of reasons it was removed from Debian. Cheers, Julien signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Bug#610257: dropbox: multiple license violations
Source: dropbox Version: 1.0.10-1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 2.2.3, 4.5 dropbox bundles many 3rd party binary-only libraries in a way that violates their licenses: 1) ncrypt-0.6.4-*.egg/, according to its PKG-INFO (which is horribly mangled, BTW), contains a GPL-licensed library with accompanying source. Additionally, this library is linked to OpenSSL, but those two licenses are incompatible. 2) netifaces-0.5*.egg/ contains the netifaces library, which is MIT-licensed. One of the clause of the license is The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software. Neither is included in dropbox. 3) _dbus*_bindings.so is the python-dbus library. It is MIT-licensed, but copyright permission notices are not included. 4) _librsync.so contains statically-linked librync library which is under LGPL-2.1+ license. No source is provided. 5) _speedups.so contains (parts of) the simplejson library. It is MIT-licensed, but copyright permission notices are not included. 6) pyexpat.so contains statically linked Expat library. It is MIT-licensed, but copyright permission notices are not included. 7) libcrypto.so.0.9.8, libssl.so.0.9.8 are parts of the OpenSSL library. Its license require that Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution. Neither is reproduced in dropbox. 8) libncurses.so.5 is the ncurses library. It is MIT-licensed, but copyright permission notices are not included. (Disclaimer: I didn't do full audit of the shipped code. There might be other license problems in dropbox.) -- Jakub Wilk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I make a package in my PPA because debian requirements of the heap with licenses and give many problems whis this (incidentally that's why I went to Ubuntu). I do not care whether this package in debian and I asked to upload there because he is popular, given that users of debian wait until they bring in the beak a new version (which is exemplified in psi+) something filth you just do them, but they are already familiar - they have a standard response it is not necessary. Package missed ftp master, but if you personally do not like it: -- Use precompiled Librares (/usr/lib/dropbox): many *.so files: sqlite, wxWidgets, python, system Necessary because of the unstable ABI in the system libraries. - you can write at least 10mb of any delusion that will warm the soul fanatics like Stallman. --- Иван Борзенков ivan1...@list.ru signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
