Hi, as I reported in the ITP bug for r-cran-rmarkdown[1] the original source contains parts without licensing statement. This conflicts with DFSG. I wonder whether this is permitted on CRAN. The only clue I would have is to restrict the functionality of the package.
The r-cran-rmarkdown package is needed to package shiny-server (and other packages) which is on my todo list. Kind regards Andreas. [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=884115#26 -- http://fam-tille.de
