Sorry to be pain, but I think dog-eating.jpg came from unsplash.com (license) which is not sufficiently free for distribution in the Debian main archive. Unsplash used to use a CC-0 license, but they migrated to their current license before this image was added to unsplash.

Can I suggest that you replace this image with something licensed CC-0 or similar?

We're not even building the docs for mkdocs-macros-plugin in Debian right now (because it requires mermaid2), so we just stripped the file and ignored it. But I think you should be aware of the issue.

Good point. That seems fairly easy to correct.

If you have an idea for a replacement image, that would be welcome.

Why would that be a problem?

I mean that at the moment this bug isn't an issue for Debian. We can't build mkdocs-macros-plugin's docs within Debian.

But we do have to remove the image from our source package, because it isn't compatible with Debian's free software guidelines
