transformr for Debian minor issue in documentation [Comments regarding r-cran-transformr_0.1.1-1_amd64.changes]
Hi Thomas,
I have packaged transformr for Debian. Our ftpmaster has found a file
LICENSE.note which mentions Mapbox. In his and my opinion this can be
droped since we did not found the files mentioned there.
Please correct me if I'm wrong and the code is somehow hidden and needs
to be specified also in the debian/copyright.
Kind regards
Andreas.

You might consider discussing with upstream that the file LICENSE.note states
that there is an embedded copy of "the C++ library earcut developed by
Mapbox". As nearly as I can determine, that is not true, so the license
information in LICENSE.note isn't relevant to the package. Assuming it's not
hidden somewhere I didn't find it, the file should probably be removed. If it
still in the package, then please add the license information from it to your
debian/copyright.
Scott K
