Hi, I think I might have found 12 problems with code that dynamically links into GPL code. These ones I'm pretty sure are a problem since AutoReqProv caused them: ---------------------------------- pilot-link -> readline pilot-link-devel -> readline device-mapper -> readline device-mapper-event -> readline lvm2 -> readline kdebase-workspace -> qedje kdebase-workspace -> qzion kdebase3 -> libsmbclient libtirpc -> libgssglue These ones I'm not so sure about, since they are Maintainer specified (not AutoReqProv): ---------------------------------- eclipse-callgraph -> systemtap ghostscript -> urw-fonts This one is AutoReqProv, but maybe gvfs's LGPL just switches into GPL, since LGPL allows that? (But wouldn't this cause a transitivity problem for others that expect gvfs to be LGPL?) ------------------------------------- gvfs -> libgudev1 More details are here (e.g. licenses, and what AutoReqProv picked): ------------------------------------- http://juliusdavies.ca/uvic/csc490-2009-fall-dmg/fedora12_lic_probs.html Two questions: 1. Am I actually identifying some real problems? 2. What does Fedora normally do to detect and avoid similar problems? -- yours, Julius Davies 250-592-2284 (Home) 250-893-4579 (Mobile) http://juliusdavies.ca/logging.html _______________________________________________ Fedora-legal-list mailing list Fedora-legal-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legal-list
