Copyright review for salsa project debian/gensio
Hi,
I have just finished rewriting a nearly 300 lines long debian/copyright
file after an embarrassing ftpmaster-reject for a package that I thought
was simple.
The salsa project is https://salsa.debian.org/debian/gensio
I don't want to call it a license mess, but I have counted six different
licenses, GPL-2, GPL-2+, GPL-2 with OpenSSL Exception, Apache you name
it, and a bunch of dedicated stanzas in debian/copyright because of year
differences in the copyright statements in the respective files.
I don't have an overview about the tooling that is currently available
to check the licenses of code in a source package. I would appreciate
any pointers to tools that could help double-check debian/copyright to
avoid wasting ftpmaster's time a second time and to get embarrassed a
second time. I somebody wants to manually check, I would appreciate that
as well.
Thanks in advance for helping.
Greetings
Marc
