Package: libsnmp-base Version: 5.4.1~dfsg-9 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 2.1
Hi! libsmi2-common contains a lot of MIB licensed under a restrictive license. I did not look at all of them but many of them are from IETF and are licensed in the same manner as the corresponding RFC. Those RFC are non-free: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=199810 http://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments I will ask an etch-ignore tag for this bug for lenny since it is too late for any correction. Possible correction could be (a mix of): - wipe comments and description of all MIB - rewrite them and ship only essentials one - move the non essential MIB to non-free Non solution includes: - don't ship them at all (the package will be unusable) - ship the whole package in non-free (a lot of packages will go into contrib and no support would be provided) Another similar bug report will be filed against libsmi-common that has the same problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
