Hi,

FWIW, this is the mail I got as rejection when I intended to upload
xchat-gnome last October.

I didn't try any further packaging attempts after.

Cheers.

Hi Maintainer,

while looking at your package in NEW I discovered that it is
linking against openssl, itself beeing GPL licensed.
Sorry, but this doesnt work, the OpenSSL license and the GPL are
incompatible. For more information, and a link to give to your
upstream please visit
http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#LEGAL2 or/and
http://www.gnome.org/~markmc/openssl-and-the-gpl.html

After this is fixed feel free to upload your package again.

Additionally - this looks perfectly like it should be built
out of xchat itself, as another .deb. :)

bye Joerg
