xfig-doc has license problems in examples
Package: xfig
Version: 1:3.2.3.d-rel-2
Reading the original Release Notes on
ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/applications/drawing_tools/xfig/xfig.README.3.2.3d
I noticed the following sentence:
o New aircraft from Carlo Kopp in Examples directory. These may be
reproduced for educational and other non-commercial use only.
Suspecting evil, I found the proof:

This seems to be a violation of
http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines
7.No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor
The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the
program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may
not restrict the program from being used in a business, or
from being used for genetic research.
Please investigate
Alex
