Debian is one of many. If Debian does not want to have TYPO3, personally I say "hell with Debian". Their problem, not ours. Anyone can download and install TYPO3 from typo3.org if Debian is that stupid.

Also you could have used search to find that these issues do not exist before writing your message. ExtJS is GPLv2 specially for TYPO3. There is no need to create panic here.
