Source: mold
Version: 2.2.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

With mold 2.0.0 upstream relicensed the project from the AGPL v3.0, to
the MIT (or as we call it in Debian, Expat) license. Given the
restrictions of the AGPL, this is a major change which could open up
mold to more users.

debian/copyright (as of 2.2.0+dfsg-1) has not been updated to reflect
this change, and is thus potentially misleading users. This should be
easy to fix :)

While looking into it, I noticed that a bunch of the code shipped in
thirdparty/ is not documented in d/copyright -- namely, blake3,
rust-demangle, xxhash, zlib, zstd.

Given you're repacking the sources anyway, perhaps the appropriate move
here is to just strip the ones shipped in Debian already (xxhash, zlib
and zstd, I believe) from the source, and document the rest?

Thanks,
Faidon
