Hi folks,
maybe this is known, in this case I apologise. I don't have the time
right now to check.
find /usr/share/doc/texlive* -name artistic\* -o -name gpl\*
produces output like
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/fancyvrb/artistic2.txt.gz
/usr/share/doc/texlive-generic-extra/plain/metatex/gpl.txt.gz
etc. This is against policy 12.5 in two ways:
- licence files must not be compressed
- common licences should refer to the corresponding files under
/usr/share/common-licenses, rather than quoting them in the
copyright file.
I suppose I could file serious bugs against these packages, but I am
not sure I'd get them all. Better to check with you. Comments?
