Package: base-files
Version: 7.5
Severity: important

Dear Santiago,

neither inside /usr/share/common-licenses/Artistic nor in
/usr/share/doc/base-files/README nor in
/usr/share/doc/base-files/changelog.gz is declared (or even hinted)
which version or variant of "The Artistic License" is shipped in
/usr/share/common-licenses/Artistic.

According to https://spdx.org/licenses/ there are at least five
registered versions and variants of the Artistic License:

  * Artistic License 1.0
  * Artistic License 1.0 (Perl)
  * Artistic License 1.0 w/clause 8
  * Artistic License 2.0
  * Clarified Artistic License

According to "dwdiff -c", our /usr/share/common-licenses/Artistic is
actually the "Artistic License 1.0 (Perl)" license.

Please clearly state inside the file but also in the README which
version and variant of the Artistic License is shipped with the package.

A bit of background about some of the variants and versions is at
http://opensource.org/licenses/Artistic-1.0 as well as at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artistic_License

Description:
 base-files - Debian base system miscellaneous files
Closes: 758246 764553
Changes:
 base-files (7.6) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * By default, when the computer is booting, green and red colors are used
     to signal that a service started successfully, or that it did not.
     In this context, trying to use colors for something else might be
     misleading or even confusing. For this reason, I'm dropping
     ANSI_COLOR from /usr/lib/os-release. Closes: #758246.
   * Clarified in the copyright file that the Artistic License currently
     in common-licenses is actually the one coming from Perl. Closes: #764553.
