there is a package in pcr-testing - could ppl try it, and verify that it works properly
i am not impressed with the licensing of this code-base - i see no indication of the license, other than a GPL file itself - unlike a permissive license, it is not sufficient to simply drop a GPL file into a codebase - it must explicitly associated with some files, somehow - so strictly, i beleive that it is not licensed at all; because the author reserves the claim that it was not intended to apply to all portions of the code; because no part of the codebase states any exceptions to standard copyright - it just so happens to include a GPL file, for reasons unknown by any receiver - though it is a petty detail (the author very likely intended to license it GPL3), parabola probably should not accept the code-base, as it is even a vague "all files of the foo project are licensed GPL3 or later" in the README would be something to base permissiom on; but usually license headers are added to each source-code file - if i were to maintain this package, i would ask the upstream to clarify the licensing somehow - i might even add the license headers to each source-code file, if the upstream agreed to accept those changes otherwise, it is a sensibly small code-base (compiles in seconds); so it would probably be a relatively easy package to maintain _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.parabola.nu/mailman/listinfo/dev
