That's no reason for downgrading the severity. ,---- http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt | 1.

Indeed, and only then can this bug be closed. Note that there are more sourceless jar files in the libs dir. Among them, commons-beanutils-core.jar, jdom-b9.jar and velocity-dep-1.4.jar are not in Debian, so they might even have more severe license problems (there's a velocity-dep-1.3.1.jar in a documentation package in contrib, though). Obvioulsy, build.xml might need to be patched to not try to use these files. Regards, Frank -- Dr. Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f. Biochemie, Univ.
