Hi, after discussing the ttf-liberation licence issue with RedHat folks quite a bit and not hearing back from Alan since a week I had planned to ping Alan again today and probably just go ahead tomorrow and upload the package, when by chance I today saw you already uploaded it to NEW. Yay! Thanks for doing this! (I would have appreciated a note, but... I care more about it being uploaded :) But when looking at http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/ttf-liberation_1.04~beta2-1.html I see that debian/copyright at the end says "On Debian systems, the complete text of the GNU General Public License can be found in `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL'." while the liberations fonts licence in debian/copyright refers to GPL2. But since some time /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL refers to the GPL3, if you want to refer to the GPL-2 you _need_ to refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 now. This is definitly a problem which can prevent the package from passing NEW, so please fix that. debian/copyright also says "It was downloaded from https://www.redhat.com/promo/fonts/" which doesnt have ttf-liberation_1.04~beta2 but only a older version. You should s#https://www.redhat.com/promo/fonts/#https://fedorahosted.org/releases/l/i/liberation-fonts# in that text. This should be fixed as well, I think. Assuming NEW is processed this weekend again I would very much like to see an upload of 1.04~beta2-2 either today or tomorrow. I'd be happy to sponsor it, if noone else can. regards & thanks again, Holger
