Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I was packaging a tool with that license without shipping it.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I wished I could refer to a file /usr/share/common-licenses/Artistic-2.0 instead of copying it.
The original license is on https://opensource.org/licenses/Artistic-2.0
This kind of requests should be handled by the policy group first, as explained in the base-files FAQ. I'm reassigning the bug.
Thanks.
