autotools-dev (20130515.1) unstable; urgency=low GNU Config (config.sub and config.guess) has changed its license upstream to the GPLv3, with an added exception clause that allows the config.sub and config.guess files to be distributed under a different license in a specific condition: config.sub and config.guess can be included in programs that contain a configuration script generated by GNU autoconf under the license of the program itself. Please refer to the complete license which is included inside the config.sub and config.guess files themselves for details. This is not going to be a problem at all for any packages that use GNU autoconf/automake, nor it will be a problem for packages distributed under the GPLv3. However, it may become a problem for the rare packages which do not use GNU autoconf, are distributed with licenses other than the GPLv3, and need config.sub or config.guess. -- Henrique de Moraes Holschuh Thu, 31 May 2013 17:55:03 -0300
