License field on statically compiled executable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings!

I recently opened a pull request against the rpick package to change
the license field to include all the licenses of all its components[0].
I did this because of this text from the licensing guidelines[1]:

> The License: field refers to the licenses of the contents of the
> binary rpm.

Since rpick is statically linked (it's a Rust program), it contains
contents of many libraries that have a variety of licenses.

Is it correct then to list all the licenses of the libraries in the
license field, as proposed in the pull request?
