Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.22.1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

while test-packaging "bgpmon"[0] lintian raised, among other things,
the error

| E: bgpmon source: license-problem-non-free-RFC 
doc/xml/xml2rfc-1.33/rfc2629.html

However, RFC 2629 is listed in the known exceptions[2] so I guess
that's a false-positive that should be reported as requested. If you
need my preliminary Debianisation for a reproducer, drop me a line.

Also note I've abandoned the plan to maintain this package, severity
lowered therefore. For the same reason I'm perfectly fine with
whatever you think is appropriate to deal with lintian's behaviour.

    Christoph
