Bug#323099: wget: non-free documentation [NONFREE-DOC:GFDL-1.2]
Subject: wget: non-free documentation [NONFREE-DOC:GFDL-1.2] Package: wget Version: 1.10-3+1.10.1beta1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 2.1? Hello, both wget's man page and its info documentation are licensed under GFDL 1.2 or later. According to debian-legal, GFDL doesn't conform to the DFSG, so these files must be removed from main. As an aside, the debian/copyright file for wget only lists the license for the wget program and not the license for the wget documentation. // Ulf Harnhammar -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages wget depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7e-3 SSL shared libraries wget recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Until there is no official Debian statement to this license I cannot argue/discuss this problem with upstream. I have the same problem like you in your bug report. The concrete statement is missing and until then nothing has to be done. Until there is no statement its not RC. -- Noèl Köthe noel debian.org signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
