Note that Colin Plumb's original code (as found above) produces incorrect
hashes on 64-bit architectures.  Please use a fixed version like lib/md5.c
from dpkg.

Thanks,

Matej

Bug#345837: bzflag: uses gpl-incompatible md5 code (RSA license)

2006-01-03 Thread Paul Telford
Package: bzflag
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.3

bzflag is using md5 code which is under the RSA license.  This is
incompatible with the GPL license according to the FSF:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-mailutils/2002-09/msg00016.html


I only came across this problem because I want to upload a new package
to the archive which uses this same code and it was rejected for this
reason.
