Summary: Review Request cppad - A Package for Differentiation of C++ Algorithms https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=416761 ------- Additional Comments From bradbell@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-12-21 09:58 EST ------- (In reply to comment #6) > * Source tarball > - Well, I tried to download the source from the written SourceURL, > however only I could find CppAD-2.0.1.tgz? > (source tarball check is needed for license check) The cppad package is maintained using COIN-OR which prefers the CPL license http://www.opensource.org/licenses/cpl1.0.php Because some of CppAD users prefer GPL, both available for download from http://www.coin-or.org/CppAD/Doc/download.htm The distribution files on this web page correspond to the trunk of the svn repository and the version number changes each day; i.e., the corresponding files are today called http://www.coin-or.org/CppAD/Doc/cppad-20071221.cpl.tgz http://www.coin-or.org/CppAD/Doc/cppad-20071221.gpl.tgz The tarball CppAD-2.0.1.tgz is different in that is a direct copy of the subversion repository corresponding to version 20071016 of CppAD. If one executes the following commands tar -xzf CppAD-2.0.1 cd CppAD-2.0.1 ./build all It will create the file cppad-20071016.gpl.tgz (GPL license, Unix file format) and also create cppad-20071016.cpl.tgz (CPL license, Unix file format) cppad-20071016.cpl.zip (CPL license, Dos file format) cppad-20071016.gpl.zip (GPL license, Dos file format) This process builds the documentation and hence one needs a copy of OMhelp to do this. OMhelp is distributed with the GPL license at http://www.seanet.com/~bradbell/omhelp/installunix.htm All of the *.tgz and *.zip files contain the necessary OMhelp source to rebuild the documentation. 1. Which license would Fedora prefer to use ? 2. Does this make CppAD depend on the OMhelp package because it is used to build the documentation from the source code files ? -- 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, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
