Package: tetex-base
Version: 3.0-15
Severity: normal

As far as I could find out, the ANTP fonts' only license statement is in
the header or README.ENG:

*****************************************************************************
*               A replica of Antykwa P\'o\l{}tawskiego font                 *
*           in PostScript Type 1 format -- preliminary version              *
*                            Public domain                                  *
*****************************************************************************

Since Public Domain isn't a well defined term at least in some laws,
probably including the polish, this should be made more specific, like

"Permission is granted to freely use, distribute and/or modify all files
in the bundle."

The antt fonts now are under the GUST font license, thus I am closing
this bug.
