Hi Holger,
somebody wrote a piece of software and generously allowed others to use
this software. But they also defined a set of rules that everybody needs
to comply with.
It is really simple: If you want to distribute this software you need to
comply with their rules, If you don't comply, you are not allowed to
distribute the software.
These rules are not made by Debian. These rules are made by the author of
the software Debian wants to benefit from. So you are not in a position to
say: because it is FLOSS I can do a bit now and maybe a bit more later.
No, not complying with a license is not a bug, it is plain wrong.
I undestand that you might feel uncomfortable doing the boring task of
writing debian/copyright. Nobody forces you to do this.
But please respect the conditions that others set and that allow you to
profit from their work.
Thorsten
