https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1917073 --- Comment #10 from Lyes Saadi <fedora@xxxxxxx> --- > - This font is GPLv2 Ah! It seems that all the fonts are from jlatexmath indeed (cLaTeXMath seems to be a C rewrite of jlatexmath, even if no mention of it is made)! And its License contains a neat summary: > The archive contains several fonts : > 1) the fonts eufb10.ttf, eufm10.ttf, msam10.ttf and msbm10.ttf are under OFL (Open Font License); > > 2) the font dsrom10.ttf is under a free license; > > 3) the font stmary10.ttf and rsfs10.ttf are in PD (Public Domain); > > 4) the fonts cmbsy10.ttf, cmbx10.ttf, cmbxti10.ttf, cmex10.ttf, cmmi10.ttf, cmr10.ttf, cmss10.ttf, cmssbx10.ttf, cmsy10.ttf and cmtt10.ttf are under Knuth License. The only fonts still not explicitly not mentioned are those of the `cyrillic`, `greek` and `special.ttf` fonts, which we can safely assume are then under the GPLv2. I will open later on a pull request on cLaTeXMath seeking to add the GPLv2 license there, as it seems to be missing. Should I also open an issue in jlatexmath to confirm those are under the GPLv2? Though, this seems to be confirmed by the existence in other packages of those fonts under the "GPLv2+ with exceptions" and "GPL+" licenses in the "ctan-cm-lgc-sans-fonts" and "texlive-cm-lgc" packages respectively. Also, the "free license" under which dsrom10 is, is quite opaque? I can find it in several other packages in Fedora. - In `lyx`: dsrom is not specified, but in the license breakdown it is said: « The actual license says "The author of these fonts, Basil K. Malyshev, has kindly granted permission to use and modify these fonts." », which is the closest I've found to what is described as « free license ». The font package has in the License tag: « Copyright only and GPL+ ». - In `TeXmath`: dsrom is present, but nothing is specified? - In `texlive-doublestroke`: as is explicited in the name of the package, this would be the most logical since the DoubleStroke license is included. Oh, and seeing the mess the `texlive` package is, I don't think there is a license breakdown in it :P (I checked, there is none)! But this is I think the most reliable source there is. My guess is just that the lyx/jslatexmath maintainers have lost the source of dsrom, and multiple other fonts and just slapped "free license", which was then interpreted as Copyright only by lyx's packager? This is just speculation though. --- Anyway, what a mess is the tex fonts licensing world! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
