veracrypt_1.16+repack1-1_amd64.changes REJECTED

[Thorsten Alteholz]

Hi Mike,

unfortunately I have to reject your package.
According to [1] "(...)TrueCrypt seems to be reserving the right to sue 
any licensee for copyright infringement, no matter whether they comply 
with the conditions of the license or not. Based on this, our counsel 
advised that above and beyond being non-free, software under this 
license is not safe to use. (...)"

So as Veracrypt is basically licensed with the TrueCrypt license, I think 
it is better for Debian to not distribute such software, even in non-free.
