Bug#509337: apt copyright includes obsolete qt linking permission



Package: apt
Version: 0.7.19, 0.7.20~exp3
Severity: normal

>From /usr/share/doc/apt/copyright:

] In addition, prior to November 15th, 2000, apt may be distributed under
] terms identical to the above with the following addition:
] 
] Works using apt may link against the GUI library "libqt", copyright by
] Troll Tech AS, Norway, provided that:
] ...
]
] On and after November 15th, 2000, the above additional terms lose all
] force, and apt will be licensed only under the terms of the GNU General
] Public License, version 2.0 or later.

Seems like all this could reasonably be dropped...

Cheers,
aj
