Re: Memcached 1.4.5 - memcached-init and memcached.sysv licenses
I wrote the memcached sysv script and adapted it to fit fedora norms.

Re: Memcached 1.4.5 - memcached-init and memcached.sysv licenses
Uhhhm. memcached-init is from: commit 4b1b1ae76ef6e78dd3f1d753931ac8051ae99e9a Author: Brad Fitzpatrick Date: Tue Dec 30 19:56:33 2003 + I assume brad copied the skeleton files and modified it. IANAL so I'm not sure how much of it had to be changed to be able to flip the license, but it seems like a trivial script. The sysv one is from: commit 275f8c40705526ac4514d5dcff2cbf0311b540ac Author: Paul Lindner Date: Fri May 4 11:23:02 2007 + add rpm spec file, new sysv init script So uh. Paul? Care to comment? and finally, may I ask why you're finding this issue? Do you work for a distro or are just curious? Or you're trying to package it up and sell it? :P On Tue, 21 Sep 2010, Tomasz Zieliński wrote: > Hello, > > I've noticed that the two scripts mentioned in the subject are > probably taken from some external > sources and licensed under different licenses than Memcached itself. > > Memcached-init clearly says that it is taken from Debian.
