I have not checked but I'd say every Debian Med package has DEP5 format. When I'm touching any Debian Science package for whatever reason I'm also converting d/copyright to DEP5. > This could even allow to display the > (source) license(s) on the blends web pages. On the Blends web pages the prospective packages in Git have a license field (see for example med-bio task[1]). (I'm just realising that the packages in new queue show "License: unknown" which is probably a bug in the web sentinel code.) The machine readable gatherer is parsing d/copyright if it is DEP5 formated - so I'm quite picky about this. Kind regards Andreas.
