Package: ctsim
Severity: important

This package depends on libreadline8 which is GPL-3+ licensed. According to debian/copyright parts of your package are GPL-2-only licensed. If that is also (transitively) the case for the binaries that link with libreadline.so.8 it might be legally problematic (see https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#AllCompatibility).

There is an easy solution to the problem: Replacing the build dependency libreadline-dev with libeditreadline-dev links with the BSD-licensed libedit library which is a readline replacement.
