Package: tetex-extra
Version: 3.0-16bpo1
Severity: serious

palatcm.sty contains a license statement that requires renaming, which
is okay according to DFSG #4:

,----
| %%% Copyright (C) 1994 Aloysius G. Helminck. All rights reserved. 
| %%% Permission is granted to to customize the declarations in this 
| %%% file to serve the needs of your installation. However, no permission
| %%% is granted to distribute a modified version of this file under 
| %%% its original name. 
`----

But it doesn't even allow use - don't know whether this is implicitly
granted? 

The fd files in the same directory don't have any copyright or license
statement at all; don't know whether they need one. 

And I don't know whether this package is still useful today at all...

Hi,

as outlined in http://wiki.debian.org/AccumulativeLicensingBugs,
everything discussed in this bug has either been solved or handled in
separate bugs.

By the way, Hilmar, since you seem to do some valuable cleanup work
these days - any interest in resuming your work on
http://bugs.debian.org/327741 ? 

Regards, Frank
