<br /><blockquote>Do Feb 28 2008 14:07:08 CET von Michael Meskes an pkg-citadel-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org <br />Betreff: [Pkg-citadel-devel] Package cleanup<br /><br />Hi there,<br /><br />I just committed some minor patches to quiet lintian. However, I noticed<br />one severe problem:<br /><br />W: citadel-server: possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl<br />N:<br />N: This package appears to be covered by the GNU GPL but depends on the<br />N: OpenSSL libssl package and does not mention a license exemption or<br />N: exception for OpenSSL in its copyright file. The GPL (including<br />N: version 3) is incompatible with some terms of the OpenSSL license, and<br />N: therefore Debian does not allow GPL-licensed code linked with OpenSSL<br />N: libraries unless there is a license exception explicitly permitting<br />N: this.<br />N:<br /><br />What do we do with this one? I do not really agree with this point of<br />view as I think a copyright holder cannot break his own copyright, but<br />with this being an acceptance problem we have to fix it to get the<br />packages into the archive.<br /><br /></blockquote><p>Is there a Source to borrow the legalese from to solve this problem? It will be accepted by the citadel team.</p><p> </p><p>Wilfried Goesgens </p>
