doc-linux (2005.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
* new upstream release (20051211)
* Updated HOWTOs:
DB2-HOWTO FBB Font-HOWTO Howtos-with-LinuxDoc
IP-Masquerade-HOWTO LILO Leased-Line
Linksys-Blue-Box-Router-HOWTO Linux+WinNT
Linux-Complete-Backup-and-Recovery-HOWTO
Quake-HOWTO TimePrecision-HOWTO
* All above mentioned HOWTOs are free, except for the DB2-HOWTO
* Francesco Poli did a license audit for the free
HOWTOs and pointed out some ambigous stuff which
needs to be sorted out with the respective authors:
+ Moved Boot+Root+Raid+LILO and Root-RAID to
non-free until their license contains explicit
permission to modify
+ Moved the HOWTOs under the old-style ESR license
(Installation-HOWTO, Oracle-8-HOWTO, Reading-List-HOWTO,
Wacom-USB-mini-HOWTO) to non-free for similar reasons
+ Same for Oracle-7-HOWTO, NCD-X-Terminal and TT-XFree86
which probably derived their license come from an old,
misleading LDP template
+ Some of the arguments against the CC Attribution
licenses also apply to CC-SA 1.0. Move K7s5a-HOWTO
to non-free
+ The TeTeX-HOWTO tries to introduce invariant sections
and includes the GPL for other purposes than its own
license text. Seems to be clearly non-free. Moved.
+ All other HOWTOs mentioned in the bug report will remain
in main even though they still might need some clarification
of their licenses. I will also not move any of the GFDL
(no invariants) stuff to non-free yet. Just too much of it.
(Closes: #335220) All parts of the bug not solved yet are now
covered in separate bug reports.
* Updated Replaces in control file accordingly
* Use debhelper compat level 5
