+Comment:
  The EMBOSS package for Debian was initially prepared by Matt Hope
  (dopey at debian.org) in 2002-2004 and released on
  (http://debian.bioinformatics.unsw.edu.au/). The package distributed in Debian
  was prepared by the "pkg-emboss" project in 2006, using the work of Matt Hope
- as a starting point. The packaging work of the pkg-emboss project is in the
- public domain unless stated otherwise.
-
+ as a starting point. Feel free to use the work of the pkg-emboss project as if
+ it were in the public domain.  The license of the packaging (LGPL-2.1+) was
+ chosen in 2013 to be as close as possible to upstream's licenses (LGPL-2.1+
+ for the libraries, GPL-2+ for the applications, and GFDL-NIV-1.1 for some of
+ the documentation).  After applyint patches, please be kind to submit them to
+ Upstream under terms that are convenient for them.
