fio: hash.h is not DFSG compliant



Package: fio
Severity: grave

According to debian/copyright, hash.h is licensed as GPL-2+ but this
is not true. There is not any mention of license attribution in its
verifiable history, not by its copyright holder or anybody else on
their behalf.

Thanks to Ulrich Mueller for the relevant research [0].

Similar bug is reported to package dwarves [1], which includes on older
copy of this same file.

Regards,
Domenico
