I only intended to close this discussion and not meant to lash out at
you. Sorry if you found it offensive. My only intention was to not stall
every other package on this point. I only wanted to point out, I have
responded to your concern by uploading a fixed version.

We are not running tests currently, so it does not affect the quality of
the package.

If this was suggested early on, we did not have to go through this long
thread. I can add it back in future if we enable tests without the
section in copyright file.

Since the now removed directory has a LICENSE file different from the
rest of the code, it did not look obvious to me.
