Bug#368968: tetex-base: License violation in csplain
Package: tetex-base
Version: 3.0-16bpo1
Severity: serious
As discussed on debian-legal and various upstream lists, the license of
csplain requires that any derivative work be renamed. The version in
teTeX-3.0 is such a derivative (created by TE) which has not been
renamed, so this is a license violation.
This can most conveniently fixed by updating to the current csplain
upstream release, which fixes the problems TE's patch addressed and is,
well, unmodified csplain.
Regards,
