Package: dpkg
Severity: wishlist

Dear dpkg developers,

Please consider allowing a display of the copyright file of a package
via dpkg. While I am sure you will ask me why this is any different
from doing zcat /usr/share/doc/$pkg/copyright.gz, I am hinting at
something more like the way it is done in RPM:

http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/pipermail/ilugc/2008-July/042594.html

In essence, this may necessitate machine readable copyright format,
but I think it would be worth taking this forward.

Do inform me if I need to report this elsewhere, or if this has
already been reported elsewhere.

Thank you.

Kumar
