Package: gcc-doc
Version: 5:2
Severity: wishlist

The last two line in /usr/share/doc/gcc-doc/README read

  However, for pople who needs the documentation, it is
  available from non-free section of the Debian archive.

"Pople"? Must be a curious race, perhaps leaving on
poplars, for some reason they need documentation :-)

Beside the typo, I wonder how incompatible are the
licences for gcc and gcc-doc to one another if it
is possible to get gcc but not gcc-doc. At the very
least, the README should say where the docs actually
are. Since "non-free" is in my sources.list, why did
I get this place holder att all?

Wasn't this stuff going to be fixed after GPLv3?

TIA
Ale

Hi,

The typo in README was fixed last year... But for the license problem, I don't think there're any differences, as it's a problem in GFDL.
