Bug#816192: RFS: python-proselint/0.3.5-1 [ITP] -- A prose linter
* Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>, 2016-03-06, 16:59:
I can't find a copy of the BSD license grant in the upstream tarball at
all, only in PKG-INFO and setup.py. I'm not sure this is good enough
for ftp-master approval.
I'm pretty sure it isn't. Their reject FAQ[0] says:
If the upstream tarball does not include a copy of the license,
debian/copyright must document when and how the license information was
obtained (i.e. include "Downloaded by John Doe on 2008-12-24 from
http://example.net/license"; or reproduce email correspondence including
some header) in addition to reproducing the license itself. In the past
there were uploads where one couldn't find the license statement in the
tarball or on the website from upstream, which is bad.
