Nmap Public Source License (NPSL) Version 0.92
After review, Fedora has determined that the Nmap Public Source License (NPSL) Version 0.92[1] is not acceptable for use in Fedora. We have updated our "Bad License" list[2] to include NPSL. No software under that license may be included in Fedora (including EPEL and COPRs). The license includes restrictions on "proprietary software companies", which is a field of endeavor restriction contrary to the Open Source Definition[3]. If future versions of the NPSL are released, they will be re-evaluated for use in Fedora.

Re: Mass spec file change: Adding BuildRequires: make

If you are a package maintainer and would prefer to update your packages on your own, please do so before Dec 14, which is when I will begin doing the mass update. I will be doing the updates in batches, so that if there is a mistake the impact will be limited. Here is the rough schedule of the changes: Dec 14: Update first 50 packages. Dec 16: Next 1000. Dec 18: Next 1000. Jan 4: Next 1000. Jan 5: Next 1000. Jan 6: Next 1000. Jan 7: Next 1000. Jan 8: Rest of packages. Here are the packages I will be updating today: https://fedorapeople.org/~tstellar/br_make_day7.txt -Tom The deadline for completing these updates is the start of the f34 mass rebuild (Jan 20).
