Package: dh-make
Version: 0.55
Severity: minor

Hi!

Usign dh_make with "-c bsd" creates a debian/copyright template with a now
deprecated path to the BSD license.
>From lintian:

W: abc: copyright-refers-to-deprecated-bsd-license-file
N: 
N:    The copyright file refers to /usr/share/common-licenses/BSD. Due to the
N:    brevity of this license, the specificity of this copy to code whose
N:    copyright is held by the Regents of the University of California, and
N:    the frequency of minor wording changes in the license, its text should
N:    be included in the coypright file directly rather than referencing this
N:    file.
N:    
N:    This file may be removed from a future version of base-files if
N:    references to it drop sufficiently.
N:

N:    Severity: minor, Certainty: certain


Would be nice to have the template updated.

Thank you!

Best regards,
Nelson
