Re: RFS: julius - speech recognition engine
Hi Felipe,
Thank you for taking a look at the Julius package.

Because IMHO it's much easier to maintain than having a big patch
which I have to update every time a manpage changes.

Good catch, fixed.

Not really. I've added that now.

It's what upstream's build system provides, and I was told that the
libraries do stuff like calling abort() so I haven't really bothered
about it. I want to look into this some day though and maybe patch it.

Uhm, isn't that a common thing in licenses? It's the least clause I'd
have expected to be problematic, personally I'm more worried about the
advertising clause. In any case, I could live with it if the package
goes into non-free.
I've updated the package to include the manpage and to enable parallel
building. http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/j/julius/julius_4.1.5-1.dsc
