+ package renamings and new binary packages (which sometimes let me
hesitate to do a necessary package split since I'm afraid that it takes
longer to release a new version.  Fortunately ftpmaster became quite
quick in the last time).

I admit I'm not convinced that a change in the binary package name is a
sensible criterion to pick a (random) package for re-checking
debian/copyright.

Apropos binary package:  I do not yet know what exactly would have been
the solution to my initial problem of the copyright of auto-generated
files in the binary package.  Does this mean the issue is void or not?

Kind regards

       Andreas.
