Bug#322961: kaffeine-mozilla: jri*.h use All rights reserved copyright boilerplate and have no other license info
tag 322961 +patch thank you bts [Also mailing new kaffeine-maintainers the KDE Extras Team, who might have an interest in this] On Tuesday 16 August 2005 03:20, Steve Langasek wrote: Well, as noted, there are equivalently named files in the mozilla-dev package. Perhaps it's worth checking to see if these files are identical (except for the copyright statement, perhaps), and if not, whether the KDE versions can be replaced with the Mozilla versions? There was a need for a couple of extra files from mozilla as well (jni*.h as well) and some minor adaptions. I have now a working package without the files located on http://mirror.pusling.com/kaffeine-mozilla Comments are welcome. So are uploads ;) /Sune pgptPWvKAKoRy.pgp Description: PGP signature

On 2005 August 13 Saturday 19:04, Steve Langasek wrote: So are you filing this bug because Netscape isn't mentioned in the copyright file, or because you actually believe we don't have a proper license to them? There are equivalently named files in the mozilla source and the mozilla-dev package, so I would be surprised if these files haven't in fact been relicensed under the GPL. In that case, the copyright file includes the correct license, it just doesn't include a complete list of copyright holders, and that's not really an RC bug. This issue was discovered during package checks by my AM. I've brought it up with upstream, and their response consisted of the exact same files exist in kdebase/nsplugins - so I went to KDE upstream with the same issue, and got a single response_. So, no communication I've initiated has convinced me that we have (or anyone has) a license to distribute the files in question. That said, I could certainly be wrong and be asking the wrong people. I sincerely hope so. .. _response: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-core-develm=112314862006216w=2 I filed the bug, at his request, to document our findings and prepare for the possibility that the package would have to be removed from the archive. In case this is all a misunderstanding, though, the copyright file still does need to be updated. Thanks, Zack pgp7hM79WkjVR.pgp Description: PGP signature

Package: kaffeine-mozilla Version: 0.4.3.1-4 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 2.3 The files src/jri*.h state that their copyright is held by Netscape Communications Corporation. There is no additional license information in those files. Also, the files src/np*.[ch] contain no copyright information (though it is likely that Netscape holds their copyright as well).
