Sometimes you get the license text in the > COPYING file and a note in the README on how to apply the license. IE LGPLv2.1 > only or LGPLv2.1 or any later version at the users choice. Hence my point. I said before: !!!! PLEASE LOOK IN THE COPYING-FILE !!!! <snip> Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation. </snip> <snip> This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. </snip Looks like LGPLv2+ or not? https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#Good_Licenses GNU Lesser General Public License v2 (or 2.1) or later LGPLv2+ https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#GPLCompatibilityMatrix > Nope.

Did you ever take a look in your archive? your checkout creates an !UNIQUE! .git directory. This is the reason why we all get another md5sum. You have to remove the .git directory from your source0 before you archive it. THEN and !only THEN! we all will get the same md5sum... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
