Add MIT Licence to /usr/share/licences/common

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



I'm in the process of adding a new package to the AUR, when I noticed 
that the MIT Licence - which this program is licensed under - is not 
available under /usr/share/licenses/common. Seeing that it's a fairly 
popular license that is copied by a number of packages (many of them 
Rust based: find /usr/share/licenses -name "*MIT*"), I think it would be 
beneficial if there could be a copy of the MIT license in the licenses 
package.

I've attached a diff of my edits to licenses trunk. Note that I copied 
the licence file from rust/LICENCE-MIT and ran updpkgsums. Also, it 
seems the PHP-3.0 licence has changed, and its checksum has updated as 
well.
