Re: Incorrect FSF Address error from rpmlint

Upstream had a few files that had the old address.  I've noticed the GPLv3 doesn't have an address in it's notice.  Is it sufficient to instruct upstream
to just remove the address for GPLv2.  Not that they're going to move again, but seems to be alot of work for everybody if the address is 
actually required.

What package are you building, and what is the output from rpmlint? That
would help. It should point you to a specific file that it has flagged
as containing the outdated postal address.

(Be aware that this error has to be fixed in the upstream project, not
the Fedora package. As a Fedora packager, you can just ignore the error,
but it's good to report it upstream with a patch.)
