 libsystem-info-perl (0.054-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
 
-  TODO:
-  - t/etc/netbsd-*/release have a different copyright, and more problematic,
-    no license information. this needs to be handled somehow in d/copyright
-    (maybe the files are not copyrightable? --> Comment. maybe they are and we
-    need to find the license? maybe we need to strip them / repackage the
-    tarball?)
-
   * Initial Release. (Closes: #862352)
