+Debian and the FSF have different positions on the GFDL.
+Consequently, the GDB release tarball includes GFDL documents which
+must go in the Debian non-free section.
+
+To produce the necessary tarballs, download an official GDB release as
+.tar.bz2 from the FSF. Run debian/sanitize-gdb.sh on it. That
+will produce a gdb .orig.tar.xz and a gdb-doc .orig.tar.xz
