Nicolas,

Thanks, I got slaughtered by Barbarians on the bus >:-(

It is shipped in "debian/" subdir. I mentioned it in a comment.

I don't get it: there's a debian/ subdir in the tarball. It does not contain this patch. It's not here[0] either. I'm not familiar enough with Widelands/Debian packaging to know where else to look. It's not the end of the world though. It'll be gone by the next build.

Are you sure? For example, I see GPL2 for Culmus, but it doesn't mention
"only" anywhere.

From data/i18n/fonts/Culmus/TaameyFrankCLM-Bold.ttf (yes, I opened the TTF file in ‘less’, shoot me):

 Distributed under the terms of GNU General Public License
 version 2(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html).

So GPL2-only.

Also, Debian's copyright file considers it GPL2+.

Quite the opposite[1]:

 Files: data/i18n/fonts/Culmus/*
 Copyright: 2010 by Yoram Gnat (gyoramg@users.sourceforge.net).
 License: GPL-2

I'm not lawyerly enough to know if the combined work can be distributed as GPL2+. I don't see how. I'd love to be proved wrong!

Kind regards,

T G-R
