Dne 30. 07. 24 v 11:54 odp. Kevin Fenzi napsal(a):
mxml is ASL-2.0 with a linking exception for "GPLv2 or LGPLv2"
( https://github.com/michaelrsweet/mxml/blob/master/NOTICE )

Should that be: 

apache-2.0 WITH GPL-Linking-Exception ?
GPL-Linking-Exception does not exists.
https://spdx.org/licenses/exceptions-index.html

Closest by name is GPL-3.0-linking-exception:

https://spdx.org/licenses/GPL-3.0-linking-exception.html

But the text does not match [1].

It almost match https://spdx.org/licenses/LLVM-exception.html. But it miss one paragraph. So the exception will need either a markup change or it will be new exception. Please open issue https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data

So at the end it will be either "Apache-2.0 WITH LLVM-exception" or "Apache-2.0 WITH $BrandNewException".


[1] Great tool for the matching finding is this addon for FF or Chrome https://github.com/spdx/spdx-license-diff?tab=readme-ov-file#installation
