This is actually a violation of the MIT. Please clarify 1) how you could know upstream intended *that* MIT license (there are several, you reported the most common one called Expat) 2) really upstream needs to ship one copy of it. -- regards, Mattia Rizzolo GPG Key: 66AE 2B4A FCCF 3F52 DA18 4D18 4B04 3FCD B944 4540 .''`. more about me: http://mapreri.org : :' : Launchpad user: https://launchpad.net/~mapreri `. `'` Debian QA page: https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=mattia `-
