Add a basic debian/copyright to the binary packages. Based on an earlier patch from Maximilian Attems. Signed-off-by: Frans Pop <elendil@planet.nl> Cc: maximilian attems <max@stro.at> Cc: Andres Salomon <dilinger@debian.org> --- Original patch did not actually include the copyright file in the binary package. I've also made minor changes in the text of the copyright file. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
