Re: extra licenses



These are actually warnings:
W: icecat: extra-license-file usr/lib/icecat-3.6.15/LICENSE

W: icecat: extra-license-file usr/lib/icecat-3.6.15/extensions/https-everywhere@eff.org/LICENSE.txt
W: icecat: extra-license-file usr/lib/icecat-3.6.15/extensions/privacy_features@gnuzilla.gnu.org/COPYING
Thanks, Nick, by the way, this is my first attempt at building a deb, and since it's near the end of my spring break, it will probably be the last one for a while.
