Package: devscripts Version: 2.12.3 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/licensecheck
when a zlib style license gets additional clauses (which, by the nature of the zlib license, almost certainly restrict the software's usage), it still gets detected as zlib/png. the license in question: * @section License * <b>(C) Copyright 2012 Energy Micro AS, http://www.energymicro.com</b> ******************************************************************************* * * Permission is granted to anyone to use this software for any purpose, * including commercial applications, and to alter it and redistribute it * freely, subject to the following restrictions: * * 1.

(for context: i've found that license in an upstream tarball most of whose files only contained the three items, and used licensecheck to see if there are files with different licenses) -- Package-specific info: --- /etc/devscripts.conf --- --- ~/.devscripts --- DSCVERIFY_KEYRINGS=~/.gnupg/debian.gpg DEBSIGN_KEYID=398D1112D3A4BDE1 -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.4-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii dpkg-dev 1.16.8 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii perl 5.14.2-13 ii python 2.7.3-2 Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii at 3.1.13-2 ii curl 7.27.0-1 ii dctrl-tools 2.22.2 ii debian-keyring 2012.06.01 ii dput 0.9.6.3 ii dupload 2.7.0 ii equivs 2.0.9 ii fakeroot 1.18.4-2 ii gnupg 1.4.12-4+b1 ii libcrypt-ssleay-perl 0.58-1 ii libdistro-info-perl 0.10 ii libjson-perl 2.53-1 ii libparse-debcontrol-perl 2.005-3 ii libsoap-lite-perl 0.714-1 ii liburi-perl 1.60-1 ii libwww-perl 6.04-1 ii lintian 2.5.10.1 ii man-db 2.6.2-1 ii patch 2.6.1-3 ii patchutils 0.3.2-1.1 ii python-debian 0.1.21+nmu2 ii python-magic 5.11-2 ii sensible-utils 0.0.7 ii strace 4.5.20-2.3 ii unzip 6.0-7 ii wdiff 1.1.2-1 ii wget 1.14-1 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20120614-1 Versions of packages devscripts suggests: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20111106cvs-1 ii build-essential 11.5 pn cvs-buildpackage <none> pn devscripts-el <none> ii gnuplot 4.6.0-8 pn libauthen-sasl-perl <none> ii libfile-desktopentry-perl 0.04-3 pn libnet-smtp-ssl-perl <none> pn libterm-size-perl <none> ii libtimedate-perl 1.2000-1 ii libyaml-syck-perl 1.20-1 ii mutt 1.5.21-6.2 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:6.0p1-3 ii svn-buildpackage 0.8.5 ii w3m 0.5.3-8 -- no debconf information -- To use raw power is to make yourself infinitely vulnerable to greater powers. -- Bene Gesserit axiom
