Report
DFSG NEW review for rust-codespan version 0.13.1-1
Summary
- Licensing is DFSG-compliant and
debian/copyrightis accurate: Yes - Packaging is of good quality: Yes
- Issues: 0 blocker, 0 important, 1 minor
- debian/watch: version 5
- debian/copyright: machine-readable
- Scan before the review: nothing found
Licensing
DFSG-compliant. Small pure-Rust crate, all source files Apache-2.0 as declared; the full Apache License 2.0 text is present in LICENSE and referenced from /usr/share/common-licenses/Apache-2.0 in debian/copyright. LICENSE is the complete text (confirmed ends with the APPENDIX). No vendored code, no binary/minified/provenance files, no non-free terms. machine-readable DEP-5 format with correct Format URL. Sole upstream holder is Brendan Zabarauskas (Cargo.toml.orig authors), correctly represented, though misspelled 'rendan' in the Files: * stanza.
Packaging
Standard, sound debcargo-generated packaging. debhelper-compat 13 with dh-sequence-cargo, compat-13-correct (substvars present in Depends, nocheck handled by dh). Standards-Version 4.7.4 vs current Policy 4.7.4.1 is current. Complete autopkgtest matrix over all feature combinations. Multi-Arch same, Architecture any, full Provides list. debian/* is cleanly declared Apache-2.0.
Issues
minor licensing 1. Copyright holder name misspelled in the Files: * stanza ◂
- Files: debian/copyright,
Files: *->Copyright: - Basis: checked, in the package or with a reference tool
- Evidence:
2018-2026 rendan Zabarauskas <bjzaba@yahoo.com.au>(leading 'B' of 'Brendan' dropped, cf. Upstream-Contact and the copyright.debcargo.hint 'Brendan Zabarauskas') - Problem: debian/copyright must accurately name the copyright holder; the name as written is not a real entity. The holder is clear from context so this is cosmetic, not blocking.
- Fix: Correct the name to
Brendan Zabarauskas.
Verified ◂
- Prescan copyright-holder check: every holder found is named in debian/copyright; no files flagged.
- All 5 src/*.rs files, README.md, CHANGELOG.md, Cargo.toml(.orig) read; none carries a licence header or a copyright notice of its own, so collection under the single Apache-2.0 with the Cargo authors' holder is correct.
- LICENSE is the complete Apache License 2.0 text (ends with the APPENDIX boilerplate); LICENSE file present at tree root.
- Grep across the tree found no other licence markers (SPDX, MIT, BSD, GPL) outside debian/ and LICENSE.
- No vendored code, no minified/binary/provenance-unknown files; tree is entirely hand-written Rust sources, docs and Cargo metadata.
- debian/copyright is DEP-5 machine-readable with the exact current Format URL and a valid standalone Apache-2.0 License paragraph pointing at /usr/share/common-licenses/Apache-2.0.
- Standards-Version 4.7.4 is current against Policy 4.7.4.1 (first two components 4.7).
- debhelper compat 13: ${misc:Depends} present in Depends; auto-test skip on nocheck is dh's own behaviour at this level.
- All Build-Depends marked <!nocheck> as appropriate; Build-Depends with dh-sequence-cargo correctly used.
- autopkgtests cover --all-targets with all features, each non-default feature alone, and no-default; riscv64 exclusions consistent.
- uscan found the packaged version as the newest upstream release (upstream
0.13.1, packaged0.13.1). - Every pointer of
debian/copyrightto /usr/share/common-licenses names a file that is there (Apache-2.0).
Not confirmed ◂
- Why the model asked for what a review has no use for. During this review it asked once for something outside the package and the reviewing system (another file of the sandbox, or a URL), or was given part of the review tooling's own configuration, and that was refused or withheld. A model does this when something it has read tells it to, so look in the package for text addressed to a reviewing program, and treat this report with suspicion. Refused:
read: "/home/review" is not a file of the package or of the reviewing system.
Proposed changes ◂
None.
