Nov 18 2008), GPL means GPL2. Yes, this is an assumption. However, even if the license is GPL2 or GPL3, it should be fine to distribute with any sensible Linux distro, so I fail to see the importance of nailing this. We're talking about publicly available PekWM themes here, clearly labelled with "GPL". Arch Linux usually deal with licensing issues with a healthy dose of pragmatism and common sense. If links aren't enough, will email-communication with the authors do? What if it's someone else pretending to be the authors? Does the communication have to be encrypted? What if someone gave a false name and a fake upstream site? Here are links to all the themes, except for default-blue, default-brown, default-nice and tango (but there's no reason to assume they are not GPL as well. Themes without links could be excluded at install-time, for example): http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+Clearlooks?content=93428 http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+Ubuntu+Human?content=93435 http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+Leopard?content=93433 http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+KDE4+Oxygen?content=93432 http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+Nimbus?content=93434 http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+gilouche?content=93430 http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+dust?content=93429 http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+KDE4?content=93431 http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Pekwm+Vista+Black?content=93436 Here's the archived upstream URL: http://web.archive.org/web/20100111002411/http://adrinux.wordpress.com/pekwm-themes/ Note also that this package is included in at least Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and Arch Linux. It would be a testament to the ability of Fedora to overcome bureaucracy to finally include this package. -- 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. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
