Package: docbook
Version: 4.5-9
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: Mark W. Eichin <eichin@thok.org>, Adam Di Carlo <aph@debian.org>, J.H.M.

The current packaging license (GPL-2+) is incompatible with upstream
licensing (DocBook License). It is a hampering condition to submit patches
from Debian to the upstream.

I would like to change the packaging licensing to 'DocBook' and I will
wait 15 days to know if anyone has any objection.

Thanks!

Regards,

Eriberto
