Package: tolua
Version: 5.1b-1
Severity: important

Hi,

the license of tolua isn't DFSG-compliant, which caused the REJECT of
boswars (which includes a modified copy of tolua++, under the same terms
as tolua) — I didn't look into that license too much at that time, since
the very same terms were used for a package in main.

Fortunately, both tolua & tolua++ authors agreed to relicense their code
into the same license as lua (MIT/X), which I documented in boswars's
debian/copyright, that you now can find in unstable.

I guess one might want to raise the severity of this bug, but leaving it
at important for now, since upstream's already moved to a DFSG-compliant
license.

Cheers,
