Version: 0.3.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Some of the image files in tests/images/orientation/, derived from 
tests/images/orientation/landscape_1.jpg include an embedded ICC profile which
is Copyright 2007 Apple Inc. Presumably this was added by a tool used by
upstream to process the images.

These profiles are probably in breach of the DFSG, see the discussion at:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2014/05/msg00312.html

A re-pack script should be used to remove the ICC profiles from the images e.g.

for i in {2..8}; do convert tests/images/orientation/landscape_$i.jpg +profile "icc" tests/images/orientation/landscape_$i.jpg; done

(N.B. I will do this shortly and also file bugs upstream.)
