Bug#805370: mpage: non-free license

[Joao Eriberto Mota Filho <eriberto@debian.org>]

Package: mpage
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
Justification: Policy 2.2.1

The main license used by mpage says:

 *     Permission is granted to anyone to make or distribute verbatim
 *     copies of this document as received, in any medium, provided
 *     that this copyright notice is preserved, and that the
 *     distributor grants the recipient permission for further
 *     redistribution as permitted by this notice.


This license doesn't allow modify the source code. So, this license is
inadequate. This issue was discussed on this thread[1].
