Please reconsider licensing the debian dir under more restrictive terms than the upstream sources. THis makes it harder for upstream to incorporate changes if needed This makes the debian package effectively GPLv3+, and it will trigger license violations when actually used by KDE SC where there still is gplv2only software. Thanks in advance, /Sune Vuorela -- How to forward from the LCD CPU? First you can''t forward to the 3Dfx virus.
