Possible regression in teTeX due to license problems: Please check whether your package is affected



Summary: 

We will probably have to remove files from teTeX due to license
problems: Please check whether your package is affected!


Hi,

in the past I have started to do a license auditing on teTeX.  I found a
couple of files with non-free or unclear licensing, they are listed at
http://wiki.debian.org/ProblematicCtanPackages   I believe that most of
the files affected are old and mostly unused, but there may be some that
are even needed for other packages to function.  

If you have a package that depends on teTeX, please check whether your
package internally needs any of these files.  Below is a list of all
packages that Depend on, Recommend, or Suggest either tetex-base,
tetex-bin or tetex-extra, sorted by maintainer.  

Note that we have tried to contact as many upstream authors as possible,
and we will probably not need to remove all of them.  Some, however,
will surely have to go, and we need to be prepared.

Thank you in advance, Frank

P.S. is there a script to automatically use the output of dd-list to
send mail to every maintainer affected?
