Even a Trisquel copyright file lists a number of files under the non-free Artistic license 1.0. http://packages.trisquel.info/changelogs/pool/main/x/xdrawchem/xdrawchem_2.0-1build2/xdrawchem.copyright

However, the package doesn't seem to contain any of those files?

Hi.

I check copyright file.

I think that this copyright file ("Artistic License" section) content is incorrent.
but "boshcp.h" and "boshcp.cpp" is correct. There files license is Artistic License.
Artistic License is non-free. (but Artistic License version 2.0 is free.)

See listed (copyright file, "Artistic License" section) source code datails.

Thanks.

Yes, you're right. I was looking at the binary package. Silly me.

Sorry for the fuss...
