Bug#642255: lintian does not handle AGPL license
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.3
Severity: normal
I am working on packaging configshell which is licensed under the AGPL-3
license.
This license does not seem to be covered by lintian. I get the following
error when running lintian.
E: python-configshell: copyright-should-refer-to-common-license-file-for-gpl
