They should verify that as far as they can. Which IMO means looking at the source if there is anything obviously wrong (like if upstream used some little script to attach his GOPL notice above all files, and made that also for a file originally under another license, which he just copied). That of course can easily be done at the same time you check the source tarball while building your debian/copyright. -- bye Joerg It's not that I'm afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens. -- Woody Allen
