That is one of the "stupid policies" I mentioned in the other bug.  There is
nothing inherently wrong with rpath, and blindly rejecting packages because of
it is ridiculous.  Particularly since the paths Eterm uses are NOT WRITEABLE.

The "fix" (I use the term loosely) is to edit Makefile.am to remove the -rpath
parameter.

Eterm 0.9.4, which has just been released, has the appropriate LICENSE file to
clarify the situation.

Had I *actually* been contacted about this, I would've taken action sooner.  As
it is, no one who has posted on this bug contacted me about it, nor did the
Debian maintainer or any debian developer.  It wasn't until a USER named Nolius
dropped me an e-mail with a link to the eterm package news page that I heard of
this issue.

Shame on you both.

> Its a shame that upstream could not or would not sort out the licenses. 

I did, and I would've done it sooner had either of you e-mailed me directly
about it.

I was e-mailed about the other bug, WRT LibAST, but not Eterm.
