Package: gnome-app-install
Version: 0.5.2.5-1
Severity: normal

Messages refer to "copyright and law" (or "copyright and legal terms") a
number of times, but it's not clear what that means.  Copyright is already
part of law; in fact, copyright is the only thing DFSG cares about (AFAIK,
patent or DMCA problems would warrant removal of a package from the archive,
not simply moving it to non-free).

Also, modification and distribution of free packages is also restricted by
copyright (the GPL requires quid pro quo, and even BSDish ones require
attribution), not just non-free ones.

Perhaps it'd be better to go straight to the reason we're uttering that
message in first place, with something like "package foo doesn't meet the
Debian Free Software Guidelines" or similar.
