Package: base-files Version: 4.0.1 Severity: normal /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL now contains GPLv3. However, some packages are explicitly licensed under GPLv2 only and, due to Debian policy, do not contain a copy of the license. From GPLv2:
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program. As far as I can tell Debian is no longer providing recipients with copies of GPLv2 as required by the above-quoted paragraph. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18n (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages base-files depends on: ii base-passwd 3.5.13 Debian base system master password ii gawk [awk] 1:3.1.5.dfsg-4 GNU awk, a pattern scanning and pr ii mawk [awk] 1.3.3-11 a pattern scanning and text proces base-files recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
