Re: Fwd: Prokka Debian package?
Hi Michael,
BTW, I have "stolen" your work (stolen in a sense that I took over your
changelog entry since I needed to sign it and since beeing in a hurry I
completely forgot the option to use -k - if you mind I'll remove the
current upload and re-upload with your ID) and uploaded to Debian Med
PPA. May be we need to remove from PPA anyway - due to the licensing
issues and I simply was to quick (should not work in a hurry :-().

A quick search uncovers a relevant thread[1]

Something like this. If I understood debian/copyright correctly not all
data sets are CC-BY-ND. Am I understanding things correctly that the
code might serve some purpose with a free subset of data and could be
enhanced by other data in non-free + downloaded data?
Has anybody contacted the copyright holders of the data in question?
Kind regards
Andreas.
