Comment 5 for bug 2039036

Hello Laider,

I looked at the package and I have a few comments. These should be addressed before it's uploaded again.

1) There are some files which are licensed under BSD-3-Clause, not BSD-2-Clause. For that reason, you will need to explicitly mention them in debian/copyright.

2) When the archive admin said "asserts individual copyright where Canonical copyright applies", they actually meant that you're listing "2022 Isaac True <email address hidden>" as the copyright owner of the files under debian/*. However, because this work was done on behalf of Canonical, it is the company that should be listed as the copyright owner.

3) The debian/copyright file must contain the copyright information related to everything that is part of the orig tarball. It doesn't really matter if some of the files are not used to generate the binary packages that will be distributed; as long as the file is part of the source package, its copyright information needs to be listed.

4) As for the version chosen, it is my understanding that the package is not part of any Ubuntu release so far, right? If that's indeed the case, then you don't need to bump the package version on d/changelog. Instead, just use the "-0ubuntu1" prefix until the package gets uploaded. This is because we should not list unreleased versions on d/copyright.

I hope this provides you with the necessary information to move forward with this request. I'm going to unsubscribe ubuntu-sponsors from this bug for now; please resubscribe it once you address the points above.

Thanks.
