Lintian tag: dep5-copyright-license-name-not-unique
Type: warning
Description (from lintian-explain-tags
)
This paragraph defines an already defined license.
According to the specification, short license names are required to be
unique within a single copyright file.
This tag could be raised by something like this:
Files: filea ...
Copyright: 2009, ...
License: LGPL-2.1
This program is free software;
...
Files: fileb ...
Copyright: 2009, ...
License: LGPL-2.1
This program is free software;
...
In this case, you redefine LGPL-2.1 license. You should use a stand-alone
paragraph or merge the two files (using a single paragraph).
