The Debian package does not follow normal Debian conventions with licensing information.
I can find two files under /opt/Signal: LICENSE.electron.txt and LICENSES.chromium.html.
However, the license file for Signal itself (GPL-3.0 presumably) is not included. Also, apparently Signal ships with at least two embedded libraries (libffmpeg.so and libnode.so), for which no licensing information is provided in the package. (I believe they are not part of "electron" or "chromium", but separate libraries?)
Steps to Reproduce
apt install signal-desktop
less /usr/share/doc/signal-desktop/copyright
Actual Result:
No such file or directory
Expected Result:
Copyright and licensing information about all software shipped with the package.
This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.
