Bug#870683: ghc: DFSG incompatible file included in src

[Shengjing Zhu]

Source: ghc
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.1

Dear Maintainer,

I find your package contains the following file,

http://sources.debian.net/src/ghc/8.0.2-5/libraries/bytestring/tests/data/

which is licensed under The Project Gutenberg License.

I have a package that meets the same problem, and I asked at debian-legal.
Someone suggests this license fails the DFSG[1].

Please consider to remove this file from source.

Thanks,
Shengjing Zhu
