Is this script under copyright or in the public domain?
It can't be both at the same time.
Personally I would suggest using CC0 or a permissive license instead.
You are right, I have overseen that. As regards the licensing
conditions, I followed what is specified in the COPYING [1] and
d/copyright [2] files.
@Ana: This reply should create a new bug report. Could you please fix
the header of the update-bug-list.py script by applying the patch
attached to this message?
Thanks,
