Description Anssi Hannula 2011-12-21 21:57:27 CET

Razorqt package contains wrong license tags.

All subpackages currently have LGPLv3+, which is incorrect.

For example, librazorqxt is actually under "LGPLv2 or CPL", and librazormount is "GPLv2", and librazorqt is "GPLv3", and libqtxdg is "GPLv3" (because of contained qiconloader which is GPLv3), and razor-config-mouse is "GPLv2 or GPLv3". Didn't check the rest.

See https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Licensing_policy

Also, in razorqt-panel/plugin-mount/ there are some files that are GPLv2 while others are LGPLv3+, which are incompatible, hence preventing redistribution of the libmount.so plugin.

See https://github.com/Razor-qt/razor-qt/issues/106

I've updated the sources on our svn using the version coming from the git master (that are now much license-consistent), now I think I have to wait for the complete resolution of issue 106 you pointed me.
