Package: yelp-xsl
Version: 3.4.1-1
Severity: normal

[Forwarded from Launchpad bug #1016751]

The yelp-xsl packaging incorrectly asserts that the jQuery.syntax library is 
licensed under the AGPLv3. The version of the jQuery.syntax library in 
yelp-xsl >= 3.1.1 is licensed under the MIT license.

The following files need to be corrected:
* COPYING: Incorrectly asserts AGPLv3, and mentions COPYING.AGPL which is 
not present [patch in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=678792]
* debian/copyright: Incorrectly asserts AGPLv3

Upstream, the jQuery syntax library was updated to an MIT-licensed version 
by this commit:

commit 80e58d62f9b33c4b57edd8ed486910407293cc77

     Update jquery.syntax to 3.0.0 (which is MIT licenced).
