--- Comment #1 from Björn Esser <bjoern.esser@xxxxxxxxx> ---
I'm not sure if this particualar plugin can be shipped with Fedora.  According
to [1]:

 | ODB is available with full source code and can be
 | used with open source databases (SQLite, PostgreSQL,
 | MySQL, etc.) as well as FREE EDITIONS of commercial databases
 | (Oracle Express, SQL Server Express, etc.) under the terms of
 | the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2.
 |
 | ODB can also be used free of charge NON-COMMERCIALLY or for
 | EVALUATION with non-free editions of commercial databases (Oracle,
 | SQL Server, etc) under the terms of the
 | ODB Non-Commercial Use and Evaluation License (NCUEL).

Reading this sounds like all odb-plugins are GPL'ed, but NOT MS SQL / ORACLE
plugins, if used with the enterprise / commercial editions of the corresponding
database.

For this reason I set this to be blocked by FE-LEGAL.
