Hi, This morning I had some free time so I decided to do some work on fleshing out the contents of debian/copyright in libfreebsd. [1] The patch is attached to this email as I don't have commit access to the SVN. (I'm not a DD but I do maintain several packages--mostly Scheme-related interpreters as well as the window manager pekwm.)
I guessed on a format to declare the various copyright holders, but it's pretty simple so hopefully it will be acceptable. When I have a bit more time I will see if I can work on the other debian/copyright files or some of the other issues in the TODO file on the alioth page. Cheers, Daniel Moerner [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-bsd/2009/04/msg00004.html -- Daniel Moerner <dmoer...@gmail.com>
This patch attempts to update the debian/copyright file of libfreebsd with the full copyright information of the files in the package. I guessed on a format which hopefully will be found acceptable. -- Daniel Moerner <dmoer...@gmail.com> Index: debian/copyright =================================================================== --- debian/copyright (revision 2387) +++ debian/copyright (working copy) @@ -7,7 +7,9 @@ License: - Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without +For all files but sysctlnametomib.c: + + Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without modification, are permitted under the terms of the BSD License.
