Hi.
I am currently packaging the tasmota device manager. This is mostly
straight forward. The upstream application does however contain an
icons.py file generated with pyrcc5. This contains non free icons
that I want to replace. Most of them can be replaced with icons
already existing in Debian. This will be done by using those to
generate a replacement icons.py. The others will be replaced with
newly created free licensed icons.
Is this acceptable with respect to policy? How do I handle copying
the Debian icons with respect to the copyright file?
The answer depends a little on specifics, but generally.
1. If you are utilizing icons that are installed on a system by
another package (through a package dependency), you don’t need to
reference them in debian/copyright at all.
2. If you are including the icons in your package, as long as their
licenses are compatible, you list them in debian/copyright the same as
you would any other file.
