yes, the license of the project is a 3-clause BSD, as found in the file
LICENSE.

only the file format-subst.pl is under LGPL-v2 and this file is useful only
when working in the git repository (it generates the file with the version
tag). it shouldn't change anything in an exported archive and it is not
installed with the python code.


about the point: "Neither of source file contains any license notice".
Does this mean packaging requires that all source files contain a line that
mentions the license?


for the name of the tar archive: this is indeed a bit of a problem. It's
probably due to the way GitHub names the archive files.
FWIW, for the .deb packages, I use a service [1] that generates stable URLs
from tagged archives on github. I hope it can be useful for RPM also.


about the name clash: argh! I made sure I searched around to see if other
projects already used this name. if possible to package it without changing the
name yet another time, I'd be grateful.
