I have a project where most files are under the original author copyright and license, but within one source file, there is a different copyright as it is copied from another source. The section of code in question is delineated with comments indicating the start and end. It is under a different copyright and license that the rest of the file or source tree, in general. How should I best indicate this in d/copyright? My current approach is to have a Files: * stanza which is the majority of the source tree and a separate Files: stanza pointing to this specific file with it's copyright and license. In the comments property, I'll indicate that this stanza only applies to a section of this file as delineated by comments and that the rest of the file should be in the default copyright and license listed above. Is this sufficient? Here is the code in question: https://github.com/brave/adblock-rust/blob/dd970f26bc5877bef68f9e29d26db19c2f65b34b/src/resources/resource_storage.rs#L23 And here is my current example: https://salsa.debian.org/penguin359/debcargo-conf/-/blob/e8d22158840e1e40385e7f01dceaa0074b4d37e4/src/adblock/debian/copyright#L32 Thanks, -- Loren M.
