Hi Carlo,
I'm trying to fix https://bugs.debian.org/768690 and
I stumbled upon this bug. It seems to me that Mejiko
is actually right - even debian/copyright mentions that
code is under QPL. What is this DFSG compatible license
that you are talking about?
Cheers,
Tomasz

Hi Tomasz:
I am referring to the page below.
http://bourbon.usc.edu/tgif/download.html
he calls it free-of-charge butit is a license which was qualified as
acceptable when tgif was first put in the archive, before I adopted it.
If it is now not acceptable, perhaps it would be a good idea
Hi again Carlo,
If the license is the one here: http://bourbon.usc.edu/tgif/copyright.html
then the situation is even worse than with QPL:
[...] and its documentation for *not-for-profit* purpose
(emphasis is mine).
This is non-free: https://people.debian.org/~bap/dfsg-faq.html#no_commercial
So
Hi Tomasz,
My mistake, it is the QPL license that was originally used. As I said
before, it was already in the archive when I adopted it. Ilooked on the
https://wiki.debian.org/DFSGLicenses
page and it still lists QPL v1.0 as unsettled. In any case, I suppose I
caould ask Bill Chang
Package: tgif
Severity: normal
Hello.
Tgif license is Q Public License version 1.0 .
This license is not DFSG-Free. (e.g libcwd)
Suggests:
1. Tgif move to non-free.
2. remove Tgif.
Thanks.

I beg to differ. There are two different versions of tgif. One is
licensed QPL and the other have a DFSG compatible license. The Debian
package has been built from the non-QPL licensed code and non-DFSG bits
have been removed with the cooperation of the upstream author.
It has been so
