Summary: Review Request: libquikgrid - The QuikGrid generator and contouring routine library Alias: libquikgrid https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=246524 ------- Additional Comments From rvinyard@xxxxxxxxxxx 2007-07-03 16:17 EST ------- Here's the latest version: Spec URL: http://miskatonic.cs.nmsu.edu/pub/libquikgrid.spec SRPM URL: http://miskatonic.cs.nmsu.edu/pub/libquikgrid-4.0-3.fc7.src.rpm Changelog: - Removed version from autotools patch - Removed renaming of license and readme files - Fixed CFLAGS in quikgrid.pc.in - Fixed deprecated c++ headers in patch Rather than messing with the install option I'll just leave the files alone and put them in the docs. With respect to the license, I think there are two issues. The version 5.3 refers to the QuikGrid windows application which is at version 5.3, whereas this package is the quikgrid grid generation and contouring library which is at version 4.0. I was also a little confused about the way the license was worded, since the non-commercial seemed contradictory to the statement that it was under the LGPL. What you sometimes see is statements like "licensed under the LGPL except for commercial purposes", etc. I wasn't sure if it was dual-licensed, originally licensed non-commercial then then LGPL added, etc. To clarify I contacted the author and his reply was: "Is the problem that first line "Permission to copy for non commercial purposes is granted"? If so I will delete it - I had no intention of putting any limitations on the LGPL license. My general feeling is that I would like to see the software used where it is useful and I don't want to put a lot of roadblocks in front of people who want to do that and are willing to share changes to just those functions... If I simply repackage it with a reference to the new LGPL and place it on my web site I assume that is all that is required? I hope I can put this off until August when we get back from our cruising." -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
