Bug#615106: ITP: libwarnings-illegalproto-perl -- Pragma to disable illegal prototype warnings on old Perls
Package: wnpp Owner: Maximilian Gass m...@cloudconnected.org Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-CC: debian-de...@lists.debian.org,debian-p...@lists.debian.org * Package name: libwarnings-illegalproto-perl Version : 0.001000 Upstream Author : Arthur Axel fREW Schmidt frioux+c...@gmail.com * URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/warnings-illegalproto/ * License : Artistic or GPL-1+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : Pragma to disable illegal prototype warnings on old Perls warnings::illegalproto was implemented so that people can use strictures and use signatures at the same time. Thanks to mst, in Perl 5.12 and greater this is trivial, but before that a strange dance had to be done. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I think it is meant the Artistic Version 1 license which seems not to be DFSG compatible. And instead of GPL 1+ it would be nice to use at least GPL 2+. Artistic and GPL-1+ is the standard licensing for Perl modules, which are usually licensed “under the same terms as Perl itself”. (AFAIK the Artistic License is compliant with the DFSG, but not GPL compatible. That is why dual-licensing with GPL is used.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
