Re: [php-maint] Bug#692613: Bug#692613: php5: non-free files in upstream tarball ("The Software shall be used for, Good, not Evil")



I think the best course of action is to contact debian-release team
and ask for an exception (e.g. in Cc:).

Unless we get upstream to change the license (which is unlikely), it's
too late in release cycle for any radical change (like stripping the
json out completely).
