The restriction they were asking me to relax was the prohibition
against making the licence more restrictive.

I would not be happy to see a commercial, forked dpkg, so I have to
say `no' when people ask me to relicense it under an X-like licence.

I would not be happy to see a commercial package manager consisting of
extra code based on a modified dpkg, so the LGPL is no good either.
