I am preparing to update python-ezdxf from 0.17.2 to 0.18[1]. Since
there are some small API changes, the update will be for Rawhide only,
and I will wait one week (2022-08-06) to merge and build the PR.
However, this should not affect any other packages, since the sole
dependent package is python-trimesh and I have already confirmed it is
not affected by the API changes.
In python-ezdxf 0.18, a few new Python modules are included that are
derived from other software. The License is therefore no longer simply
“MIT.” Of the new modules in question, one is a fork of its original
upstream. I have treated it as a bundled dependency, adding the
appropriate virtual Provides. The others are full rewrites from
different languages; the licenses of the original projects still affect
the ezdxf License, but I have not treated them as bundled dependencies
since no code is copied from the original projects. See the comments in
the spec file above the License field if the details matter to you.
In classic “Calloway” notation, the new License field would become:
MIT and (ISC and MIT) and (AGPLv3 and MIT)
However, I am taking the opportunity to convert the package to SPDX, and
so the License will become:
(MIT AND (ISC AND MIT) AND (AGPL-3.0-only AND MIT))
In accordance with the updated requirements for license changes, I have
directed this message to both the devel list and the legal list.
