Firstly, please contact upstream and ask them to release it under an existing DFSG-free license. You might get lucky ;)
If they aren't interested in DFSG-free licenses, then something like this would be better: http://intellinuxwireless.org/LICENSE.iwlwifi-ucode If the license does not change, I would suggest using a downloader package that displays the upstream license and requires the user to agree to it.

Correct. The last one is the 4-clause BSD license with obnoxious advertising clause. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
