debian/copyright: GPL-2+ with classpath exception
hi,
I couldn't find the short version of the "GPL-2+ with classpath
exception" license.
I am currently using:
-----------------------
Files: ./freeplane/src/org/freeplane/features/encrypt/Base64Coding.java
Copyright: 2001, 2003, 2004, 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
License: GPL-2+ with classpath exception
see `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2'.
.
Linking this library statically or dynamically with other modules is
making a combined work based on this library. Thus, the terms and
conditions of the GNU General Public License cover the whole
combination.
.
As a special exception, the copyright holders of this library give
you permission to link this library with independent modules to
produce an executable, regardless of the license terms of these
independent modules, and to copy and distribute the resulting
executable under terms of your choice, provided that you also meet,
for each linked independent module, the terms and conditions of the
license of that module. An independent module is a module which is
not derived from or based on this library. If you modify this
library, you may extend this exception to your version of the
library, but you are not obligated to do so. If you do not wish to
do so, delete this exception statement from your version.
-----------------------
=> is this ok (from http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/license.html)?
or shall I replace the "see ..." with the GPL-2 text?

The complete debian/copyright of my package is here:

BTW: is there a tool to check debian/copyright (syntactically) against
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
?
Thanks and Best Regards,
