Bug#740543: RFS: eggdrop/1.6.21-1 [ITA #698272]



Hi Vincent and Markus,

Thanks for your comments on the package.

I've updated the package with copyright information for
- src/compat/gnu_strftime.c (LGPL-2+)
- src/compat/inet_aton.c (GPL-2+ and BSD-4-clause and BSD-3-clause, with
comment for the University of California BSD-4-clause portion)

As well as the following files (different authors):
- src/match.c (public domain)
- src/compat/snprintf.c (GPL-2+)
- src/md5/md5c.c (public domain)
- scripts/dccwhois.tcl (GPL-2+)

Finally, I've excluded the only two files with no license information
from the package : scripts/autobotchk and scripts/sentinel.tcl

You can find the updated package at the same place
http://mentors.debian.net/package/eggdrop
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/e/eggdrop/eggdrop_1.6.21-1.dsc

A quick note on the remaining open bugs:
- #282437 wasn't able to reproduce (but since it is almost 10 years
  old...)
- #596641 the UTF-8 patch indeed is simple, but it is labeled as "I want
  Eggdrop to speak and understand UTF-8. I want it so badly that I'm
  willing to take the ugliest hack available!" on
  http://eggwiki.org/Main_Page . It comes from
  http://forum.egghelp.org/viewtopic.php?p=82111#82111 , with the
  following comment : "BE AWARE: This patch FORCES UTF-8 support, so
  only apply it if your system supports it :) [This patch overrides
  eggdrops own mechanism to detect the encoding system it should use
  based on variables (LC_ALL,...).  So this is totally a HACK and
  nothing to put into production code for compatibility reasons]"
- #374568 for the same reasons as
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=374568#17 

Regards,
