RE: Copyright
I'm investigating this more. Tango seems to have been relicensed under the public domain. This is good news as Debian legal has issues with mixing CC below 3.0 and the GPL.
From tango-icon-theme- 0.8.90/
In the preparation of the 0.8.90 release Novell took care of tracking
down all the contributors to get them to relicense their artwork
into Public Domain.
The COPYING file of the tarball states the following:
| The icons in this repository are herefore released into the Public Domain.
Still trying to figure out if gnome-icon-theme is GPL-2 or GPL-2+
@perfectska04
Thanks for those changes. They will definitely make it easier to maintain a package from a distro perspective.
@Benjamin Drung
Thanks again for all the help. If you're interested in being a co-maintainer, feel free to add yourself in debian/control. If not, credit your self in the changelog.
@Jonathan Davies
Thanks. See above in the thread. We're aiming for Debian so it can just get synced in. That lintian warning has been fixed in the packaging branch (lp:gnome-colors-pkg). Any further review would be helpful, but I think we're almost ready. Know any DDs that would be willing to upload?
