Ah, makes sense to remove it then, but a lintian override would be the
better way :)

Please check that; it seems that my internet connection is quite flicky
currently; maybe it was just a problem on my side.

IIRC (I allready removed your package and am to lazy to download it
again), debian/copyright say it's GPL without any version.  Which would
mean, that I can choose any Version I like including GPL-1.

However the sourcecode say, it's GPL-2 or later.

IIRC debian/copyright points to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL, which is
a link to GPL-3.


So you can either decide, that we distribute it under the GPL-3, than
the link would be correct, but the text should be adjusted, or decide
that GPL-2 or later fits out needs as well, but then you would need to
adjust the text and the link to point to
/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2.



Yours sincerely,
  Alexander
