Bad news everyone. Dolphin Emu has license issues that make it non-distributable in its current form.
1) wiiuse is GPLv3+, but the rest of Dolphin is GPLv2 only. Fortunately, wiiuse can be removed, or we might be able to make use of the LGPLv3-noncommercial license that wiiuse also provides. The upstream wiiuse author might be willing to add another license exception to allow GPLv2, or otherwise free programs, to link with wiiuse. 2) As I understand it, Debian requires that GPL programs that link against non-free libraries have a license exception that specifically allows them to link against those non-free libraries. Dolphin links against nvidia-cg-toolkit libraries. I don't think we can just remove that code. We'll need to get permission from upstream authors to link against non-free libraries, and, as I understand it, we'll need to get permission from all of them. Alternatively, we might be able to replace nvidia-cg-toolkit with something free, which is something I had been looking into before I knew that there were serious problems putting dolphin into contrib. I could use some help negotiating between the various parties. -Brandon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
