Note that the rmd160.c file included in the Perl module http://search.cpan.org/src/CHGEUER/Crypt-RIPEMD160-0.04/rmd160.c grants no rights at all. However, the file at http://homes.esat.kuleuven.be/~cosicart/ps/AB-9601/rmd160.c is different and has some sort of advertising clause. The Perl module includes the following rather odd claim: " This copyright does not prohibit distribution of any version of Perl containing this extension under the terms of the GNU or Artistic licences. " Certainly there's a big mess of confusion surrounding all of this. Honestly I think this ticket should just be closed unless someone is really willing to untangle all of it. From what I understand, Spacewalk doesn't need any Perl modules these days anyway, although I think someone should probably check to make sure it isn't incorporating the questionable RIPEMD160 C code in some other fashion. -- 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. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
