There is also a binary file included in the source code, which should be
removed:

cgi-bin/multipart.dat

Also an very big issue is, that debian/copyright still lists Easy
Software as the upstream author and actual copyright holder of the newer
releases. It has been changed to Apple! Please have a deeper look in the
delivered LICENSE.txt!
