Package: publican Version: 4.2.6-1 Severity: wishlist This is about GFDL license of the ICON and CSS template files under publican-*/datadir/Common_Content/ The debian/copyright has:

Files under /usr/share/publican/Common_Content/brand-template/images/*.png /usr/share/publican/Common_Content/common/*/css/*.css as installed in the system from these template files should be in the permissive license following the other GNU tools such as autoconf, automake, libtrool, ... :-) FYI: The CSS should be in code like license. GFDL does not make sense for CSS. The code parts of this package are licensed mostly under: License: Artistic | GPL-1+ So if asked properly, upstream may not say GFDL for ICONS and CSS. Only document text data *.xml should use GFDL, IMHO. Osamu PS: Now Debian release notes and other DDP files use CSS inspired by this CSS. Since I wanted to document it in the upcoming debmake-doc package properly, I came to check this license situation. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (99, 'testing'), (98, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages publican depends on: ii docbook-xml 4.5-7.2 ii docbook-xsl 1.78.1+dfsg-1 ii docbook-xsl-ns 1.78.1+dfsg-1 ii docbook5-xml 5.0-2 ii fop 1:1.1.dfsg2-1 ii gettext 0.19.3-2 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.39-1 ii libconfig-simple-perl 4.59-6 ii libdatetime-format-dateparse-perl 0.05-1 ii libdatetime-perl 2:1.12-1 ii libdbd-sqlite3-perl 1.44-1 ii libdbi-perl 1.631-3+b1 ii libfile-copy-recursive-perl 0.38-1 ii libfile-find-rule-perl 0.33-1 ii libfile-homedir-perl 1.00-1 ii libfile-inplace-perl 0.20-1 ii libfile-pushd-perl 1.009-1 ii libfile-slurp-perl 9999.19-4 ii libfile-which-perl 1.09-1 ii libhtml-format-perl 2.11-1 ii libhtml-formattext-withlinks-andtables-perl 0.02-1 ii libhtml-formattext-withlinks-perl 0.14-1 ii libhtml-template-perl 2.95-1 ii libhtml-tree-perl 5.03-1 ii libhtml-wikiconverter-markdown-perl 0.06-1 ii libhtml-wikiconverter-perl 0.68-2 ii libimage-magick-perl [perlmagick] 8:6.8.9.9-5 ii libimage-size-perl 3.232-1 ii libio-string-perl 1.08-3 ii liblingua-en-fathom-perl 1.15-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.33-2+b1 ii liblocale-maketext-gettext-perl 1.28-2 ii liblocale-maketext-lexicon-perl 1.00-1 ii liblocale-msgfmt-perl 0.15-1 ii liblocale-po-perl 0.24-1 ii librsvg2-bin 2.40.5-1 ii libsort-versions-perl 1.60-1 ii libstring-similarity-perl 1.04-1+b2 ii libsyntax-highlight-engine-kate-perl 0.09+dfsg-1 ii libtemplate-perl 2.24-1.2+b1 ii libtext-csv-xs-perl 1.11-2 ii libxml-libxml-perl 2.0116+dfsg-1+deb8u1 ii libxml-libxslt-perl 1.92-1+b1 ii libxml-simple-perl 2.20-1 ii libxml-treebuilder-perl 5.4-1 ii perl 5.20.2-3+deb8u1 ii perl-modules [libversion-perl] 5.20.2-3+deb8u1 ii perlmagick 8:6.8.9.9-5 publican recommends no packages. publican suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
