The issue here is that information about licensing is unavailable in the source package. Title now rephrased to not avoid assumption. If licensing is based on external information and/or guesswork, then that should be documented in debian/copyright. > For instance, a brief google search seems to indicate that the first one > on your list (ColomboAcousticDrumkit) is GPL-2 licensed: > http://freepats.zenvoid.org/Percussion/acoustic-drum-kit.html Thanks for the valuable info - now added to debian/copyright.
