No, you're absolutely right. I did not take a close look at the java/
directory cause we are not using its GUI anyway, and I did not notice
the License, mea culpa.
As we are not interested in the java stuff, I've removed it from orig
and repackaged. I have now uploaded dl-poly-classic again.
I will also try to contact the authors, but this package has not been
touched upstream in a long time...
Sorry for that,
Michael
