Proposed change to Policy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Explicitly allow packaging of programs that include all required
dependencies (convenience copies, vendoring), provided that
licenses and DFSG are respected.
Quick question (not hostile, just to clear it up): you do realize that
this means that the package's copyright file would need to document
all the licenses of all the bundled packages, right? At the very least
to provide enough information for users and downstream distributions.
You make it sound like we don't already have packages that do this.
Kind Regards,
