The man page effect again. https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/dreq.en.html#copyright So back to License: GPL-2 On Debian systems the full text of the GNU General Public License can be found in the /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 file. > [Obviously, there are requirements on the > resultant binary, but debian/copyright is not the place to document > them.] I am curious whether it will cause a new bug report when Debian's xorriso says $ xorriso -version ... Provided under GNU GPL version 3 or later, due to libreadline license. There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. although the copyright information says GPL-2. And both are correct. Quantum physics. Have a nice day :) Thomas
