Newsgroups: gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.rc
Date: 2004-11-17 04:51:31 GMT (5 years, 12 weeks, 18 hours and 27 minutes ago)
Package: autoconf
Version: 2.59-8
Severity: serious
This is a semi-automated bug report. This report was written by a
human, but the input is the same for several bugs to save time and
express accurately the problem.
Your package contains material (documentation, most likely) that is
licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. This license,
despite its name, is non-free according to the Debian Free Software
Guidelines, and is therefore not suitable for inclusion in main.
Your package, which is in main, contains this material, which is a
serious bug according to Debian Policy section 2.2.1.
Please do one of the following:
1) remove the offending material from your source package;
2) move the offending material to a different source package which
is in non-free;
3) request removal of your package from the archive; or
4) move your package to the non-free archive.
Thank you for your contributions to Debian, and have a nice day.
