Hi all, I packaged lv2-artyfx-plugins for Ubuntu recently. While it was undergoing review by the archive admins (they review all of the copyright headers in the source files for compliance in addition to other items, they're basically the gatekeepers of the Ubuntu repositories), it was pointed out to me that these plugins create a binary that is combined from sources using both GPL-3+ and GPL-2 (not GPL-2+ as would be indicated with the "or later version" clause). Because of this, it turns out that this package, while the source files can be redistributed, the binaries cannot because the source files licensed as GPL-2 (again, not GPL-2+) are not compatible with GPL-3 since it is a later version. So with that, I intend to retire this package, and I believe it would be in the best interest of the project if the package can be removed from the repositories as the binaries are basically an illegal redistribution in many countries. Thanks, Erich ---- Erich Eickmeyer Fedora Jam _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
