Source: libzstd
Version: 1.1.2-1
Severity: serious
Tags: Upstream
Justification: Fails DFSG#6: examples cannot be used for commercial purposes
Control: forwarded -1 https://github.com/facebook/zstd/issues/774

Dear Maintainer,

The files in 'examples' in the source package cannot be shipped in the 'main'
part of the archive as they are not freely reusable by others.

  The examples provided by Facebook are for non-commercial testing and evaluation
  purposes only. Facebook reserves all rights not expressly granted.

  ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION
  WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE.

cheers
Stuart
