Hi, Otto asked for help with the copyright file for the Debian MariaDB packages. As I understand it, the .deb packages have a file /usr/share/doc/mariadb-server-5.5/copyright and there are some scripts in Debian that check the file against what is in the headers of source files and possibly other checks (error output attached below). Otto did something, but there is apparently more needed. Can some of you who understand the finer points of licensing among Oracle, Monty Program, MariaDB Services, MariaDB foundation, Percona, ... please look into this and help Otto fix up things? Debian are usually very careful with licensing, so this could easily become a blocker otherwise (I assume). - Kristian.
