rvtrans 0.3.9-1
Package Information
| Description | x86-64 userspace binary translator RVTrans is a Kylin project derived from Box64. It runs Linux x86-64 applications using an interpreter and, where available, a dynamic recompiler. It forwards supported library calls to native system libraries. This package provides the translator and its application configuration. Applications may require additional x86-64 libraries, which are not bundled. |

DFSG Assistant LLM REVIEW 0 blocker, 0 important, 0 minor

DFSG NEW review for rvtrans version 0.3.9-1
Summary
- Licensing is DFSG-compliant and
debian/copyrightis accurate: Yes - Packaging is of good quality: Yes
- Issues: 0 blocker, 0 important, 0 minor
- debian/watch: version 5
- debian/copyright: machine-readable
- Scan before the review: 2 found
Licensing
debian/copyright is machine-readable (DEP-5). Files: * correctly assigns Expat (MIT) matching the top-level LICENSE, with dedicated stanzas for each vendored/derived group: musl (Expat plus SunPro for the Sun files and Expat for the Arm ones), khash (Expat), json.h (Unlicense), x64primop.c/h (HPND-sell-variant), SDL_dynapi_procs.h (zlib), wrappedd3dadapter9 (MIT-Mesa), wrapperhelper glibc headers (LGPL-2.1+), x86zydis.h (Expat), and rv64_printer.c (Expat and BSD-3-clause). Every licence short name used has a stand-alone paragraph with full text. The prescan's two 'commercial or non-commercial' hits are the Unlicense public-domain text, which affirmatively permits commercial use and is DFSG-free. The dfsg-author-check across 2120 files found every copyright holder is named in debian/copyright. No non-free terms, unlicensed files, or built blobs. All licences are DFSG-compliant and mutually compatible in one binary.
Packaging
Packaging is of good quality. Standards-Version 4.7.4 is current (Policy 4.7.4.1), debhelper-compat 14 is used with a straightforward dh + cmake rules file, hardening=+bindnow is enabled, and the smoke-test hook correctly checks DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS nocheck (also handled by dh at compat 14). Architecture (amd64 arm64 loong64 riscv64), Build-Depends (debhelper, cmake, python3 — python3 is required by CMake), binary Depends, Install/conffile handling (rvtrans binary and /etc rvtransrc), autopkgtest, changelog, and Vcs-* fields are all sound. No policy violations or upgrade concerns found.
Issues
None.
Verified
- Prescan:
src/include/json.h:11anddebian/copyright:258'commercial or non-commercial' wording is from the vendored json.h Unlicense text; the Unlicense explicitly permits commercial and non-commercial use, so it is not a restriction and is DFSG-free. - Prescan: dfsg-author-check declared every one of the 23 declared copyright holders found across all 2120 files is named in debian/copyright.
debian/copyrightis DEP-5 machine-readable, begins with the canonical Format: URL, has a Files: * Expat catch-all, per-file stanzas for every vendored/derived group, and complete stand-alone License: paragraphs for Expat, SunPro, HPND-sell-variant, MIT-Mesa, Zlib, Unlicense, BSD-3-clause, GPL-3+ and LGPL-2.1+.- Top-level LICENSE is the standard MIT/Expat text; CMakeLists and individual modified files carry SPDX MIT markers consistent with Files: * Expat.
- musl files: Sun-provenance files carry the SunPro permission text (checked in __cos.c, __rem_pio2.c, sin.c, etc.); Arm files exp2/log2/exp_data/log2_data carry 'Copyright (c) 2018, Arm Limited' + 'SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT', matching the Expat stanza; the remaining musl files are Expat under the
external/musl/*stanza. - x64primop.c carries the libx86emu Realmode HPND notice (SciTech/David Mosberger-Tang/Egbert Eich/SUSE Steffen Winterfeldt) matching the HPND-sell-variant stanza.
- SDL_dynapi_procs.h carries the Sam Lantinga zlib notice; wrappedd3dadapter9 headers carry the Joakim Sindholt MIT/Mesa notice; both match their stanzas.
- wrapperhelper/include-override glibc headers (stdint.h, bits/*.h, stdc-predef.h, pthreadtypes-arch.h) carry LGPL headers, matching the LGPL-2.1+ stanzas; the wrapperhelper program itself is MIT as covered by Files: *.
- Packaging: compat 14; rules uses cmake with the RV64/ARM_dynarec flag logic, NOGIT=ON to avoid requiring git_head.h, and debian/clean removes the generated src/git_head.h and debian/build; override_dh_auto_install is a no-op because upstream's install rule skips the binary on x86 hosts and the binary is installed via rvtrans.install.
- Packaging: rvtrans.install installs debian/build/rvtrans to usr/bin and system/rvtrans.rvtransrc to /etc (conffile); manpage, docs, tests/control (superficial smoke test), changelog and upstream/metadata are all present and correct.
- uscan found the packaged version as the newest upstream release (upstream
0.3.9, packaged0.3.9). - Every pointer of
debian/copyrightto /usr/share/common-licenses names a file that is there (GPL-3,LGPL-2.1).
Not confirmed
- Wine-derived files under wine/ are covered by Files: * Expat per the copyright comment; they are build-time helpers not shipped in the binary, so no licence conflict arises, but I did not confirm the exact upstream provenance/licence header of each def/crt/wrt file.
Proposed changes
None.
