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?See https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-legal-docs/-/issues/61 > Does not affect the License tag. But the license of the file must be from the allowed list.That's not the full answer. We do have a way to represent this information by using the SourceLicense tag.
I don't think this tag is reflected in our guidelines or is it? Vít
This tag should be used to define a superset of the License tag information in this case, since it's used to override License for the SRPM. However, this tag does not exist before RHEL 9.4 for EPEL purposes. Note that for packages of static-link ecosystems like Rust and Go, this is flipped: the License tag is a superset of the SourceLicense tag, as the License tag represents the mixture of licenses for all the statically linked packages, whereas SourceLicense just indicates the license of the sources shipped in the SRPM. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!
