Greetings

I am sorry to say, but your upload of dvd95 did not clear the NEW
queue, as I had to reject it, because the source tarball contains
generated files without a source, namely src/dvdauthor/dvdmy.c and
dvdmy.h, which are generated from the respective bison grammar files.
These sources do not appear in the upstream repository either, but
they are included in dvdauthor's repository, and as far as I could
tell, in its release tarballs aswell.

In order to be included in Debian, all sources MUST be provided, these
included.

You may also wish to correct the lintian warning about the missing
gpl-2 license in debian/copyright, it should be gpl-2+. Also,
src/tmemcpy.c's copyright is not documented,  either.

I would also suggest changing the packaging license from GPL-3+ to
GPL-2+, because right now, due to the patching, the debianised version
of the package is effectively GPL-3+, while there are no other GPL-3
parts in the source save for the packaging. That's unfortunate, in my
opinion.

Please feel free to respond to this email if you don't understand why
your files were rejected, or if you upload new files which address our
concerns.
