Bug#688251: Built-Using description too aggressive
Package: debian-policy
Severity: normal
Based on discussion in debian-devel, the current Built-Using description
would imply that it had to be present for, say, the code from libgcc
incorporated into every binary build. The description should be modified
to be clear that it is only mandatory if there are licensing reasons why
we have to be aware of the original source.
