Yes, seems that this issue with the license is finally being resolved.

I don't know if there is any policy inside Debian about packaging development branches of software, but I guess that most people would agree that is better to only package stable releases. So I wonder if once this issue with the license is completely addressed could you make a minor release to be packaged in debian? perhaps something like aircrack-ng-1.1.1 with this license issues fixed and some other fixes/features that you feel to be stable/tested enough to be used on production environments like, for example, the commits of r2008 and r2010. http://trac.aircrack-ng.org/changeset/2008 http://trac.aircrack-ng.org/changeset/2010 Thanks! -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez http://neutrino.es Igalia - Free Software Engineering http://www.igalia.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
