Description Jeremy Bicha 2017-09-06 15:38:30 UTC 
According to Debian's lintian checker, this file is a non-free RFC.

Since we don't install it anyway, why don't we just remove it? Trivial patch attached.

Review of attachment 359281 [details] [review]:

No.

The RFC describes the DICT protocol, and as long as GNOME Dictionary implements a DICT protocol I prefer having the RFC in the repository, for quick consultation.

I already stopped distributing it as Debian asked; I'm not going to change the repository to accommodate Debian's fetish with documentation licensing as well.
Comment 3 Jeremy Bicha 2017-09-06 17:05:51 UTC 
To clarify, 'meson dist' includes every file checked into git in its tarballs. That is why this is an issue now.
Comment 4 Emmanuele Bassi (:ebassi) 2017-09-06 18:46:51 UTC 
Then this USB a Meson bug: it should respect the git attributes file.
