Package: flex
Version: 2.5.35-9
Severity: minor

Hello Manoj.

According to this:

http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/flex/flex.README

"[flex] is not (and never was) a GNU package". As the "f" in flex
stands for "fast", I would suggest modifying the copyright file in
this way:

diff -ru flex-2.5.35.original/debian/copyright flex-2.5.35/debian/copyright
--- flex-2.5.35.original/debian/copyright       2010-04-04 12:52:45.000000000

 This package was first put together by Robert Leslie <r...@mars.org>.


BTW: You might want to remove Linux from "Debian GNU/Linux" as well,
as Debian has hurd-i386, kfreebsd-i386 and kfreebsd-amd64, but that's
a completely different issue. After all, we have not released any of
those as stable yet, so this is up to you.


Thanks.
