upgrading to LGPLv3+ #3125
Comments
There is a reason for it, see e.g. #2573 In short,
The two files you point to are from Dose which, it seems, still has the license bug. I should see with the authors (@abate / Ralf Treinen) to have it fixed. EDIT: dose license: https://scm.gforge.inria.fr/anonscm/gitweb?p=dose/dose.git;a=blob;f=COPYING;hb=HEAD |
I see, thanks for the explanation. Would you keep this issue open until the |
@abate It would be great if we can have your approval of re-licensing the two files to the same as opam, such that we can package opam for fedora as LGPLv2 (with linking exception): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501992 |
Actually, digging through my e-mail, I already had a formal agreement from Ralf to switch the license of these two files to LGPLv2+linking exception ; so the situation is solved, I just forgot to change the headers. Thanks for pointing it out! |
Perfect! Thanks! |
Fixed by #3126 |
Current the LICENSE file in this repo states that opam is LGPLv2+, but I found that there are 2 files,
src/core/opamVersionCompare.ml
andsrc/core/opamVersionCompare.mli
, are LGPLv3+.I would suggest upgrading the license of the whole opam to LGPLv3+ to be consistence.
