gmp/debian/README.Debian says
---------------------------------------------------------------
Sadly, due to licensing the GMP documentation is no longer shipped in
Debian. The package libgmp10-doc now contains only demo code.
---------------------------------------------------------------
and links to the manual which says:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3 or
any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no
Invariant Sections, with the Front-Cover Texts being “A GNU Manual”, and
with the Back-Cover Texts being “You have freedom to copy and modify
this GNU Manual, like GNU software”.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Can you please share where the licensing issue is? I don't think that's
the GFDL - because this manual has no invariant sections - is it?
Thank you,
Simon
