Hello,
My question is: this is relevant in Arch Linux? I guess that in
general there are no strong rules about license issues under Arch Linux.
I remember well, that some time ago, I asked some things about some
packages readline (GPL) and BSD license. One comment, if I remember
correctly, is that strictly speaking there would be problems between
OpenSSL and software that makes use of it.
Finally the conclusion was something like: "Why discuss this?
Everything is free software!".
So: Why is the opposition? Why comply with details in this particular
case and in all other not? All is free software at all!
PS: If there's one thing I love about Arch Linux is that it does not
care about this great parody/paradox about licensing.
Good day \forall
The discussion continued "in other branches" and I quote my message that
was ignored.
I'd like to read the answers to these questions if they were so kind.
So I think that discussions about "compatibility" of licenses are
meaningless. Leaving aside what really matters is functionality.
Thank you.
