sorry my fault. On Friday evening after my first upload I noticed the version
string was wrong (I created the first internally used package back in last
September and till Friday evening never noticed the wrong version string).

Fixed. The generation from copyright.in was bogus.

Well, this is a problem. In /usr/share/common-licenses/BSD the first line is
Copyright (c) The Regents of the University of California.
All rights reserved.
I don't see why the University of California should have any rights to the
code. Well, actually they have the right to two of the files we took over
from BSD, but certainly not to all the others.
Both licenses are almost identical, but common-licenses/BSD specifically
is about the *university* license, while ours refers to the real authors.

No, and I doubt it ever will be. We are presently dicussing the optimal way to
implement a control interface, but I don't think there is even the slightest
chance it will be compatible with the in-kernel unionfs.
I just uploaded a new version:
dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/u/unionfs-fuse/unionfs-fuse_0.20-2.dsc
Thanks,
Bernd
