license/copyright structure.
I followed the instructions from the Software Freedom Law Center [1] to

This was requested by Debian, because the minicom software, which is
available on Debian and other distros, has a binary named runscript. We
are keeping a backward compatibility symlink for now, but this allows
Debian or any other distro to safely remove the symlink.

We also add a deprecation warning to the binary when it is run as rc to
encourage users to switch to openrc instead.
