Description Elad Alfassa 2011-06-19 12:25:57 UTC
While packaging gnome-contacts for fedora ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712923 )
I got these errors from rpmlint:

rpmlint -i says:
The Free Software Foundation address in this file seems to be outdated or
misspelled.  Ask upstream to update the address, or if this is a license file,
possibly the entire file with a new copy available from the FSF.

Replace FSF address by a reference to its website

The previous patch didn't update the paragraph in the COPYING file itself.

Applied, thanks.
