Yes I know. This URL was in the original package, I could not find alternative resource. I will try to contact upstream, especially when I have patches to forward. I am quite new to this and I am not sure what should be done in this situation.

It's early in the morning, but my gut feeling is that no, it would not be compatible. Why not? It's not uncommon for an upstream to give their code and their art/data assets different licenses. In fact, it's quite common for packages maintained in the Games team, e.g. 0 A.D. imposes a GPL2+ license on their game engine and a CC-BY-SA license on all their artwork, music, and other game assets. There are also a number of games packages where the engine is DFSG-compatible but the game assets are under some non DFSG-compatible license (usually due to a non-commercial usage clause), and thus packaged in Debian by putting the engine in contrib and data in non-free. The upstream Freeplane developers are well within their rights to include non DFSG-compatible artwork if they wish. It just means that we have to strip them out / replace them (c.f. Firefox/Iceweasel), or move the package from main to non-free. Regards, Vincent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Not for Debian main, no. You will have to strip the icons from the software, or move it to non-free. The author should provide a clear license, e.g. using Creative Commons, as even redistributing artwork might be understood as a right of use, which Debian wouldn't have and hence even non-free would be impossible. -- Is it even compatible with the GPL-2+ license of Freeplane? Yes[*] I guess, it means that having the icons in a jar file isn't OK, having them in the file system is OK, but java was always a border case because it doesn't link as it was understood when the GPL2 was written (GPL3 might even be another story). The easiest would be if upstream would change their plans and not take this artwork, no icon justifies the trouble, but I know upstream, coolness vs. legal were always difficult discussions ;-) Thanks and Happy New Year, All the same, Eric -- Felix Natter [*]: So long as the icons are totally and sepretely loaded.
