Sponsoring request gdcm-2.6
Dear all, I've updated the GDCM package that FTP master rejected the last time because of the dep5-copyright-license-name-not-unique lintian warning. Specifically, since each of the license texts varies in wording I replaced all the short license names "BSD-3-clause" to become unique entries. In two instances the license text actually referred to another license. In all the other instances I changed the short name to BSD-3-clause-alike- My reason for the latter approach is that none of the license texts resembled the text of point (3) exactly as it can be found in /usr/share/common-licenses/BSD and hence, to bless one of the licenses with "pure" BSD-3-clause short name would have been a random decision. many thanks, Gert

It is possible that this upload also fixes #767217 (arm64 build) and #746268 (hundreds of "sh: 1: dot: not found" messages), however the first I can not test and for the second I didn't stare long enough at the pbuilder output. There are info-tags for two spelling errors and three hardening-no -fortify-functions that I didn't override. Best, Gert
