Bug#751121: Please fix "FIXME" statements in copyright file

[Luca Falavigna]

Source: netatalk
Version 2.2.2-1
Severity: serious
Tags: jessie sid


Your debian/copyright file contains lots of FIXMEs.

For example there is an entry for
distrib/initscripts/rc.atalk.suse.tmpl
but this file does not exist. The corresponding file
distrib/initscripts/rc.atalk.suse-sysv.tmpl
contains just the line:
Copyright (c) 1996-2001 SuSE GmbH Nuernberg, Germany. All rights reserved.
How do you know that Debian is allowed to distribute it?

> Your debian/copyright file contains lots of FIXMEs.

Status update: Most FIXMEs have been addressed now, through analysis of
the history of those files (documented as comments for each file in
debian/copyright).


Remaining are 2 FIXMEs.

One is this:

> For example there is an entry for

> distrib/initscripts/rc.atalk.suse-sysv.tmpl

...which is dropped in later upstream releases, so will go away when we
upgrade.

Last remaining issue is this: etc/afpd/fce_api.c

That one I have now passed upstream:
