Further auditing found multiple directories mentioned neither in COPYING nor copyright (why two files?) which thus have no license attached to them.
Examples: * ui4/ * common/ * fax/ (but that seems to have license headers) * apparmor/ * the root directory of the source code It would be great if that could be cleaned up as well. I can report that as a separate bug, if wanted. The easiest way is probably to add a catch all "Code is licensed under the GPL-2, unless mentioned otherwise." part. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1553628 Title: Non-free code in ErnieFilter (license only grants rights for use with HP products) Status in HPLIP: New Status in hplip package in Ubuntu: New Status in hplip package in Debian: Confirmed Bug description: The headers of ErnieFilter.cpp and .h say: // This software is licensed solely for use with HP products.
