Description

The vpb-driver-source package is a driver for telephony cards. It contains a script to fetch nonfree firmware (only needed for OpenLine cards) under a very restrictive license:

The OpenLine firmware binary is licensed to you ONLY for use
with Voicetronix hardware. It may be distributed freely for
that purpose, but may not be used without Voicetronix hardware,
nor may it be modified in any way to be used without Voicetronix
hardware.

I submitted a package helper to trisquel-devel. If anyone has better sed commands, use them, because I don't really know much about sed.
