Package: base-files
Version: 9.5
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I'm just packaging some stuff that has AGPL license. Looking at:

https://codesearch.debian.net/results/file%3Adebian%2Fcopyright%20AGPL/page_0

It looks like a lot of people have literally just copied the whole text
into debian/copyright.

If this is accepted, a bug should be filed on lintian to ensure that
people reference the common file instead of duplicating the license in
future uploads of their packages.

Thanks,
Iain.
