On behalf of the kvirc maintainers in Debian:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Dear Alessandro Lanave,
we, the Debian maintainers of KVIrc, hereby request the immediate takedown of
your binary packages from [0].

We do this for several reasons:
1. You've deleted any reference to our (and others) copyright on the packaging.
   This is a plain copyright infringement.
2. You don't provide the source for your binary packages, which is an
   violation of the GPL.

There are a few secondary reasons, why we're not too happy with your packages
in a request for packaging on Launchpad, which might lead to the situation that
your packages become the next official Ubuntu packages.
A preliminary examination showed the following:
1. You're offering a kvirc-data binary package for amd64 and i386, which is
   inexplicable, as kvirc-data is an Arch: all package.
2. You didn't provide a proper changelog entry for the changes made by you. It
   seems like you've just replaced the first line of the topmost entry, which
   was an entry for the 4:4.0.0~svn3240-1 package.
We haven't checked further, so there are probably other quality issues.

You're free to provide new packages, which comply with the GPL and the
copyright law. We'd encourage you, to use our latest package as a basis and/or
check if the latest packages provided by Debian aren't suffcient for you.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Kind regards,
Raúl Sánchez Siles and Kai Wasserbäch
Debian Maintainers of KVIrc
