Bug#457256: gnomekiss: debian/copyright doesn't provide correct/full Copyright information

Source: gnomekiss
Severity: important
Version: 2.0-1
Usertags: bad-copyright

The copyright file[1] of the package contain some inconsistencies on the 
Copyright information.
This is usually in the form of "Copyright YYYY by John Doe <john at doe.com>", 
but your file states:
---
Copyright: GPL
---

GPL isn't a "copyright" but a common license under which software may be 
released. The excerpt of the source's license in the copyright file should 
also be included.
