I'm afraid I'm not a wealth of knowledge here, but I noticed it in the list of "Removed Packages" in the recent release announcement of Debian 3.0r2 on the Debian-announce list. Looking at http://master.debian.org/~joey/3.0r2/ I notice it is actually on the Accepted list, though they have this note with it: "The license incorrectly says that it's LGPL but it is in fact a unique license which is non-DFSG-free." Perhaps Mr. Schulze (joey@debian.org) would have more information about this, since he appears to be the author of that page. HTH, Jacob ----- GnuPG Key: 1024D/16377135 Linux.
