I'm trying to work out what would be the best way forward for this. mudlet has an icon, mudlet.svg which had a cc-by-nc-sa license. I reported it to upstream who basically said "oh yeah, we stuffed up, not sure how it got there, fixed now". Do I need to rebuild mudlet for jessie to fix this? It seems to be quite a lot of mucking around just for something we know has the wrong license.
With my SRM hat on, we're generally happy to consider the issue resolved if the package in unstable contains the correct license information and the file(s) involved are other distributable, as at that point it's basically a documentation issue rather than a licensing one. Assuming that's the case, no separate update for Jessie would be required.
