Hmm. mysql does appear to be using this implementation, but since they are specifically distributing under GPL v2 *only*, I'm not sure it's a problem. Or are you saying BSD+ad is incompatible with v2 as well? > If it is the RSA > implementation, we're going to need to replace it (coreutils has a GPL > compatible implementation that should be a drop in). Not sure I see the point of the sort of patch you seem to envision. If we are shipping SRPMs containing upstream tarballs that contain BSD+ad code, haven't we got an issue anyway? regards, tom lane _______________________________________________ Fedora-legal-list mailing list Fedora-legal-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legal-list
