Uh, that's a bit of a problem.
The text under http://opensource.org/docs/osd/ does *not* constitute a
license by itself. It just describes what a license has to define to
become an OSS license. For blessed OSS licenses, see
http://opensource.org/licenses/. For a simple lib like this I'd suggest
http://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause or
http://opensource.org/licenses/LGPL-3.0

A LICENSE file parallel to usr/share/doc/README containing the license
text would be nice.
Other than that licensing issue, the package is GTG.
Thanks,
Corinna
