To clarify: As said in this thread, it is not a restriction (because it imposes no restriction that isn't already there in the absence of the clause). I agree that it appears to be phrased as a restriction. > Given that it doesn't affect the license itself, I think that I can > omit this detail in the packaging. You would do best, IMO, to put the full license grant including that clause, into ‘debian/copyright’. Our analysis here of the clause's effects notwithstanding, Debian Policy requires the full copyright information in that file, and IMO this clause is part of that information. -- \ “It is a part of probability that many improbable things will | `\ happen.” —Aristotle, _Poetics XXV_, 335 BCE | _o__) | Ben Finney
