Package: sponsorship-requests

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "opencpn":

  * Package name    : opencpn
    Version         : 5.6.0+dfsg1-1
    Upstream Author : Dave S. Register <bdbcat@yahoo.com>
  * URL             : https://opencpn.org
  * License         : GPL-2+, public-domain, GPL-3+, SGI-B-1.1, SGI-B-2.0, Expat, GPL-3, LGPL-2+, Expat or GPL-2+, GPL-2, BSD-3-clause, wxWidgets
  * Vcs             : https://gitlab.com/leamas/opencpn
    Section         : misc

d/changelog
===========
Please remove the 5.2.4.210213gitcad0d456+dfsg1-1 entry.
It was never uploaded to the archive.

d/copyright
===========
There are four debian/opencpn* files listed. This does not make sense. Please list the source files, e.g. data/tcdata/harmonics-dwf-20210110-free.tcd instead of debian/opencpn-data/DEBIAN/md5sums with a line referring to usr/share/doc/opencpn-data/harmonics-dwf-20210110-free.tcd.gz.

That file is released into the public domain, as specified by the documentation coming with https://flaterco.com/files/xtide/harmonics-dwf-20210110-free.tar.xz, so GPL-2+ is wrong.

You can remove the GPL-2 standalone paragraph with the Files: debian/opencpn-data/usr/share/doc/opencpn-data/copyright paragraph. It has "Copyright (c) 2021 by X. Ample" ...

Why do these things show up in your new version? They are not in the 5.2.4+dfsg-1.
