[cl-debian] Bug#365200: [NONFREE-DOC] Package contains IETF RFC/I-D

Package: cl-aserve Severity: serious Hi! It seems your package contains non-free RFC/I-Ds: usr/share/doc/cl-aserve/rfc2396.txt.gz web/cl-aserve The license on RFCs is not DFSG-free, see: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=199810 http://release.debian.org/removing-non-free-documentation I believe the options are: 1) Remove the file from the package (which may include re-packaging the source code). 2) Move the files to a non-free package (which may also include re-packaging the source code). If you disagree with this, because this bug is reported for several packages at once, it seems better to discuss this on debian-legal, in this thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.legal/25993 The severity is serious, because this violates the Debian policy <http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-dfsg>. I'm sorry if this report is filed in error, I went over many packages looking for suspicious filenames, and there may be false positives. Thanks, Simon
