Geeqie embedding ZoneDetect timezone data
A package I am maintaining (Geeqie) is looking to use ZoneDetect
timezone data, and geeqie upstream has actually embedded that data in
their upstream git repo. See [1] for that commit.
I have searched Debian mailinglists, and to me it looks like this is
ok, the ZoneDetect data is licensed under ODbL 1.0, and I guess that
the files that Geeqie embeds are "source" for the data.
Since I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this, I ask here - Does this
look alright?
(I know, and have told geeqie, that it needs to mention under which
licenses that data is used better - they are a bit more prominent in
the ZoneDetect repository [2]), but not really crystal clear there either.
Also, I am trying to make them to not embed that data, but use it as an
external library, but that is a separate problem.
