Bug Description

Binary package hint: memtester

The copyright info file for the memtester package here:
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/m/memtester/memtester_4.0.8-1/memtester.copyright

... is incorrect. It states the standard "GPLv2 or later version", but memtester is GPLv2-only, as can be seen in the included README file and other places (such as the message output when the software is run).

I'm the author of memtester, by the way. As a sidenote, this package is a little behind the upstream mainline version.

The COPYING files says GPLv2 or later version... I've updated it to be GPLv2 only now at http://gnu.ethz.ch/debian/memtester/
