Bug#963090: mig - Undistributable (GPL + advertisement clause)



Package: mig
Version: 1.8-7
Severity: serious

mig mixes two incompatible licenses: GPL and a BSD derivative including
an advertisement clause (included in cpu.sym and message.h):

|                                                    and (3) all advertising
| materials mentioning features or use of this software display the following
| acknowledgement: ``This product includes software developed by the
| Computer Systems Laboratory at the University of Utah.''
