Dear Rodolfo, dear Yadickson,

my name is Markus Koschany and i'm working on a new official Debian
package for wbar. While i prepared the package i discovered some license
issues thus i am contacting you in the hope that you can help resolving
them.

Please keep the bug reports cc'ed and the information public because i
think this would help other distributions, too. I've also attached a few
patches which fix minor spelling errors and typos.


1. Unoffical Debian packages

First of all thanks for supporting Debian. Unfortunately some users
confused your unoffical package with the offical but alas outdated
package in Debian and filed bug reports against them. See [1] and [2]
Please consider removing the unoffical packages from the project
homepage as soon as the official version gets updated.


2. GPL

The old Debian package states the source code is licensed under GPL-2. I
can find the same statement on your offical project homepage. [3]
Your source tarball respectively the svn repo contains a COPYRIGHT file
which says the code is licensed under GPL-3.

So my question is: Which one is it?


3. Icons

In the past we had to remove non-free icons and a font file. Obviously
you don't use the iconpack folder anymore. Would it be possible to
remove it completly from the svn repo?

I would like to use the new icons in /pixmaps but i can't find any
information about where they came from. I recognize the Anjuta logo
which is licensed under GPL-2 but the licenses for the other icons
remain vague. Could you clarify this situation?

4. Toolchain

You are using a very helpful autogen.sh file to create the build
toolchain. Would it be possible to include it in the next source tarball
release? I personally prefer rebuilding the toolchain myself and i think
this would also make it easier to spot changes in the source files. It
also reduces the size of the source tarball.

5. Patches

I've attached a few patches which correct, in my opinion, spelling
errors and typos in wbar. I'm not a native speaker myself but i had the
feeling "inverting icons growth" sounds better than "investing icons
growth". If you disagree with my changes, please let me know. If i made
a mistake myself i will revert the changes of course. I've also
increased the default icon size to 64. It makes wbar more visible for
starters and easier to spot.

Thanks for reading this far. I'm looking forward to your answers.

Best regards

Markus Koschany
