Bug#943669: RFS: backintime 1.2.1-2 -- simple backup/snapshot system [closes RC bugs]
Thank you for pointing this out to me - I was not aware of the GFDL-NIV short
name. I have now changed it to GFDL-NIV-1.1+ (because legal.xml says "Version
1.1 or any later version") and pushed the updated version to the Salsa
repository.
Thank you for sponsoring this upload!
