More than half the upstream source files have no copyright or license
statement in them. There is also no ChangeLog in any of them AFAICS
(which is a violation of the GPL). The package looks like upstream
doesn't care much about these things, but it could be good to let them
know in a friendly way that it might be better to add these notices.
debian/copyright contains some errors:
- The copyright statement says 2003-2005. It's likely longer than that.
- The stated license is GPL 2 only. For most files (with a license)
this is true. For 2 of them, it is "2 or later". The link to the
full text however points to the "latest version", which is currently
3.
Since upstream obviously means the thing to be free, I wouldn't consider
it a priority issue, but it would be nice if it would be sorted out some
time.
Thanks,
Bas
