Bug Description
Hi, not sure if you saw http://
I'm pretty sure CC's NC licences aren't sufficiently free for Debian main or Ubuntu universe.
Is that material not available under a freer licence?

As far as I know, this is the state of this problem :
screenlets (core) is no more affected by this. However, most of the images files don't have a clear licence, but was made by this upstream project. It probably can be licenced under the same licence than the source code
indiv-screenlets should use Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike instead of the NC. I think it was, in fact, always the case, but there was a mistake in debian/copyright and in the licence use in the source (which was propably maintained by the same person ... me :-/). A grep-r doesn't show any icon with a NC licence.
