question on copyright_hint

hi all,

i'm currently packaging "jacktrip" [1] (and want to do that via
pkg-multimedia), and i'm using cdbs for that (jacktrip builds with
qmake, and cdbs made that really easy)

however, i stumbled across one problem when using copyright_hints

the source of the problem:
jacktrip-source includes 3 images in the documentation (screenshots of
qjackctrl), which were created/edited on OSX.
now whatever image-editing software was used, upstream managed to
release these files with an embedded Color-Profile ("Color LCD") aand
this color profile has a "Copyright Apple, Inc., 2008" embedded.

how i noticed:
now running
$ DEB_MAINTAINER_MODE=yes dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
generates me a nice debian/copyright_newhints file, with a lot of files
correctly tagged as being "MIT/X11 (BSD like)", and the 3 images with a
binary-blob in the Authors/License fields (it seems like the cdbs script
simple does a grep for "copyright" on all files)

currently my biggest problem is, that the binary blob in the
copyright_hints file makes dpkg-source complain with "unwanted binary
file: debian/copyright_hints"
it suggests that i might add an override in
debian/source/include-binaries, but i have the feeling that i don't want
_that_.


what i need:
so how should i proceed from here?
- - just remove the debian/copyright_hints completely and be happy with
what i got so far?
- - remove the binary blob from this file? (not so good as the copyright
check relies on copyright_hints being an exact copy of the generated
copyright_newhints (which obviously contains the blob))
- - tell CDBS to not copyright check certain files (how?)
- - file a bug-report in CDBS that it should never create binary-blobs in
the copyright_newhints?
- - ...?

cheers,
fgmasdr
