Arch Linux trademark and docker images

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



Hi there,

I just stumbled on the following [1] blog post, which says that shipping ubuntu docker images with modifications (e.g. web app, etc.) might be a violation of trademarks. I was wondering wether this also applies to arch linux, since the trademark policy [2] is derived from ubuntu somehow. Especially if you use aur packages inside the container, the trademark policy insists on a trademark license. I found some packages [3] that include aur packages.

The FSF started a dialog with Canonical in order to allow such customization based on ubuntu. [4] Am I right with my assumption, that docker images with aur packages need a trademark license? Would it be a possibility to change the policy in oder to allow such works as docker images with aur packages?

Regards,
Christoph
