Source: libaqbanking Version: 2.2.3-3 Severity: serious Justification: Debian Policy Chapter 2.2.1
The AqBanking .orig.tar.gz distributes a non-free binary file src/plugins/backends/aqyellownet/plugin/libaqyellownet.so which is covered by a separate, German only license. This license permits distribution of the binary file and limits the user in what he can do with it: § 3. Besondere Beschraenkungen: Es ist Ihnen untersagt, die Software zu dekompilieren, einer Rückentwicklung zu unterziehen, zu deassemblieren oder in eine visuell erfassbare Form zu bringen. which translates to something like: § 3. Special Restrictions: You are prohibited to decompile, reverse-engineer, disassemble, or transform this software into a visually comprehensable form. This violates in my opinion two aspects of the [0]DFSG: - The source code must be included but isn't - The special restrictions seem to prohibit derived works. Since I'm the maintainer of the package for the package I apoligize for not rising this earlier. I really didn't notice it before! Fortunately this bug should be easily done by repackaging the source tarball.
