Me neither. > > I would love to help, but I am afraid I lack the necessary input data! I'm in the same position. So I dig. And frankly I don't have much time for this, especially since in most case it's just a lack of information (and not a problematic license). As you may have noticed, desktop-base team is rather empty right now, and more technical (and I'd say more severe too) problems exist which need to be fixed for Squeeze. So again, reporting is nice, it's important to have correct copyright information on the package. But fixing is better. Regards, -- Yves-Alexis
