Bug#597933: Non-free files distributed in sdcc
Hi Sorry for my silence but I have made a new 2.9.0+dfsg-1 version of the package that can be found at http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sdcc please take a look at it an give me a comment. I hope to convince the release team to include it if I'm not too late. Regards Gudjon

As it seems this is not affecting Squeeze, could we (at least) tag
squeeze-ignore this bug report (if not close it)?
No. Read again. The files were moved, but the code is there in 2.9.0.
(Look in device/include/pic{,16}.)
sdcc-2.9.0/device/include/pic$ for x in `ls` ; do less $x ; done
I did read license headers on all those files, some of them GPL, some
of them GNU pic license, some other without notice, which I belive
general COPYING information applies in such case. I was unable to find
any notice as reported in this bugreport.
Philipp, can you specific the files with the problematic license
status?
Cheers,
Moritz

No. Read again. The files were moved, but the code is there in 2.9.0.

This exception is Microchip Technology Inc. They insist on a the file can be used only with authentic Microchip devices condition, which clearly violates DFSG §6. The problem affects the pic and pic16 ports only. All problematic header files live in the include/pic and include/pic16 directories. In the Debian package these are installed into the /usr/share/sdcc/include/pic and /usr/share/sdcc/include/pic16 directories. The problematic source files live in the device/pic and device/pic16. For the upcoming 3.0.0 release we intend to clearly separate the problematic files from the rest of sdcc.
