If a file is a patched version of a coreutils file, should I mention the dc3dd author in the Debian copyright file, or the coreutils autho, or both ? How about taking the approach from the gnu coreutils package: http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/c/coreutils/current/copyright ? They list the licenses of all the files but only if they are different from the generic one (see 'all other files' in the copyright file). IMHO we should just take the copyright information upstream of dc3dd decided to specify. -mika- ___ forensics-devel mailing list forensics-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/forensics-devel
dc3dd copyright
Here is a summary of the situation. dc3dd is a patched version of gnu/dd from the gnu coreutils package. dc3dd uses a lot of files from the coreutils package and some of them maybe useless for dc3dd.
