[Fedora-legal-list] Should I mention Build-scripts' licensing terms in a spec's License field?

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

 



Hello!
I stumbled upon the following situation. I am packaging a library
under MIT license. However the upstream-provided build-script in a
tarball explicitly licensed under ISC license (has a header with ISC
license). If it matters I do not use this script for building at all.
So I have two questions.

1. If a tarball has a differently licensed file which is not going to
a final RPM should I still list its license in a spec's %license
field?
2. Does it change anything if this file wasn't used at all during RPM
build process?
