This doesn't seem right, can you please reupload with the
libreadline that Debian used and a note that it should be
sync'd next time unless there's a reason to override Debian's
libreadline choice?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

<div>Once again Micah, seems as if this message would have best
been kept private between you and Nicolas. We all know you're a
smart dude, no need to be an ass about it.</div>

This was a public upload that was sent to a mailing list monitored
by Ubuntu developers that resulted in a license violation. The
reason I sent it to the list was 2 fold. First, that others should
be aware of such things (i.e. possible license violations, although
it was Colin who actually spelled that out properly). Second, that
I was sure that I wasn't going to be the only one to raise an
eyebrow about this. In order to keep everyone on the same page, I
moved the discussion to the ubuntu-devel list. This has been done
before. This is not about pointing fingers, but about raising
awareness and getting things fixed. We all make mistakes.
Sometimes, one person's error can be a learning lesson for
everyone. I certainly hope no one is looking down on Nicolas for
this, I certainly am not. In fact, it's because Nicolas did
something right, that this was able to be caught at all. He
included the changelogs from Debian properly in his upload which
allowed the merge to be contrasted with what was done in Debian.<br>
