Source: libcaca
Version: 0.99.beta19-2
Severity: normal

libcaca is licensed under the WTFPL but libslang2 is licensed under the GPL.
This makes it impossible for applications with GPL-incompatible licenses to use libcaca
or any library that links against libcaca.

libsdl1.2debian is the most prominent reverse-dependency of libcaca.
I would be surprised if there wasn't a libsdl user in the archive that is GPL-incompatible.

Thanks,
Felix
