--- Comment #2 from Michal Ambroz <re...@seznam.cz> ---
Hello Fabian,
I believe there is some legal question about the license of fatback.

Files+licenses:
- getopt.h getopt.c getopt1.c are taken from some version of glibc and GPLv2+
license.
- missing,techinfo.tex - GPLv2+


- install-sh - MIT license 

- pseudo_code, fatback-manual.info, fatback-manual.texi
   Copyright (C) 2000-2001 DoD Computer Forensics Lab This manual and
the Fatback program are for *government and law enforcement use only*.

- rest of the files is not clear what license it has

As it bundles GPLv2 software it is possible that it is infected with the GPLv2
license too, but I doubt so. GPLv2 files is not the core functionality. It
would be definitely better to contact the upstream (harbo...@dcfl.gov) and Tom
Spot Callaway to bring some light to this question. 

Best regards
Michal Ambroz
