Hi Pavel,

both licenses are listed as "good" licenses according to the Fedora
licensing wiki page [1].

The license tag of the package will be "CDDL-1.0 and BSD with
advertising".

The CDDL-1.0 requires that all resulting binaries or object files that
are linked with object files licensed under the CDDL-1.0 terms and
conditions can legally be relicensed to the CDDL-1.0 terms and
conditions, which is in this case is permissible by the BSD license.

Thanks,
Björn
