Hello Norbert,
thanks for your very quick reaction!   :-)
I see that you dropped sympytexpackage.pdf from the package: this is
understandable, in order to remove the serious issue for the time being.

Needless to say, I really hope the author of sympytexpackage may be
persuaded to re-license the documentation under the same license as the
rest of sympytexpackage (GNU GPL v2 or later).
I think that having documentation under the same terms as the
executable code is important, especially in the case of TeX literate
programming that mixes the two parts so much...

Once the re-licensing is done, sympytexpackage.pdf will be reintroduced
into the Debian package, I suppose.

Thanks again.
Bye.
