--- Comment #42 from Ralf Senderek <fedora@xxxxxxxxxxx> ---
(In reply to Peter Robinson from comment #37)
> I have concerns about the bundled cryptlib:

In order to resolve the legal issue that has led to the
blocking of the cryptobone package once and for all, I
will not include the original cryptlib source code file
in any future SRPM. Instead, I will store a much reduced
zip archive that has no reference to any brainpool curve
implementation or any reference to brainpool code at all.

For public inspection I will provide this new zip-file 
on the Crypto Bone web site as a permalink:

https://crypto-bone.com/fedora/cl343_beta_fedora.zip

In addition to the work of eradicating brainbool code and
references from the original source code archive, for which
I thank Tom Callaway, I have deleted files that did
not contribute anything to the compilation of the library
for use on linux systems. These files are:

 Test32.vcxproj
 Test32.vcxproj.filters
 Test32.vcxproj.user
 cl32.dll
 cl32.lib
 cl64.dll
 cl64.lib
 crypt32.def
 crypt32.dsp
 crypt32.dsw
 crypt32.ico
 crypt32.rc
 crypt32.sln
 crypt32.vcxproj
 crypt32.vcxproj.filters
 crypt32.vcxproj.user
 crypt32ce.vcp
 crypt32ce.vcw
 test32.dsp
 test32.dsw
 test32.sln
 test32ce.vcp
 test32ce.vcw
 tools/GenPas.pl
 tools/GenPerl.pl
 tools/GenVB.pl

This greatly reduced zip-archive (cl343_beta_fedora.zip) will 
always be used in future versions of the cryptobone, starting
with version 1.0.2

Secondly, as Tom Callaway has pointed out in his Comment #40,
cryplib is licensed under the Sleepycat license, which is 
recognized as a good license for Fedora.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:Main?rd=Licensing#Good_Licenses

As both objections have been addressed to avoid any possible
legal problem, I think the cryptobone package should be unblocked
once the new cryptobone version 1.0.2 is used to build.
