Bug#692946: cdd-dev: copyright file missing after upgrade (policy 12.5)



Andreas,

could you please

  [ ] agree
  [ ] disagree

to the suggestion to lower the priority of this bug.  I would like to
deal with this as quick as possible but I would like to hear your opinion
about the action that should be done.

Kind regards

     Andreas.
