I would, but the copyright file states: | fractutils/gf4d_subprocess.py: | | #By obtaining, using, and/or copying this software and/or its | #associated documentation, you agree that you have read, understood, | #and will comply with the following terms and conditions: | # | #Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software and | #its associated documentation for any purpose and without fee is | #hereby granted, provided that the above copyright notice appears in | #all copies, and that both that copyright notice and this permission | #notice appear in supporting documentation, and that the name of the | #author not be used in advertising or publicity pertaining to | #distribution of the software without specific, written prior | #permission. To my understanding this is contrary to DFSG #1 because you cannot sell it, permission is only given "for any purpose AND without fee". So either you contact the upstream author and agree with him to change this clause or you package it for non-free. regards, -- Ricardo Mones http://people.debian.org/~mones «Try the Moo Shu Pork.
