But who said we need a GPL compatible licence ?
This issue is getting on my nerves now, so please stop throwing pointless
issues.
Debian can accept software packaged under PHP licence 3.01 provided that
they ship
only php-related files.
I you have a doubt, look at php5's package licence.
*So* I have prepared a pakcage shipping *only* this pear package and
uploaded it to new.
It's still stuck there, but I hope that since the licence is cleared, it
will be accepted.
Now my question was wether there was something I didn't figured out in
*this* scenario,
not yet another occasion to feed the troll on GPL vs. PHP licence.
