Subject: mesa: glut files have non-DFSG-free license
Package: mesa
Version: 7.0.3
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.1

Some files in mesa have the following license:

/* This program is freely distributable without licensing fees  and is
   provided without guarantee or warrantee expressed or  implied. This
   program is -not- in the public domain. */

Since this doesn't explicitly give users the right to modify, it's not
DFSG-free.

Doing a grep for "not- in the public domain" and "kilgard" gave me this list of files:

We don't ship glut in mesa anymore, so closing.
