Bug#383403: linux-2.6: includes nondistributable and non-free binary firmware
Package: linux-2.6
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.1
The following 59 files, found in Debian's linux-2.6_2.6.17.orig.tar.gz,
apparently contain software in binary form, for which Debian has no
corresponding source code. Debian policy states that "The program
must include source code, and must allow distribution in source code
as well as compiled form." Therefore Debian must not distribute these
files.
