Comment 2 Xavier BERTAUX 2012-02-23 20:11:00 CET
I worked on integrating the RPM Speed-Dreams a TORCS's fork, it appeared that the library txml, by a Fedora's developer, that the library txml is in MPL-1.0 license which is incompatible with the GPL

Comment 3 José Jorge 2012-02-23 21:36:36 CET
And so what? What solution did you find for Speed-Dreams?

Also, I can't find anything about that in Fedora or Debian. Please provide some links?

Thanks
Comment 4 Xavier BERTAUX 2012-02-23 22:35:51 CET
Hi José,

for Speed-Dreams, we have take other expat library, compatible with GPL
at :
http://expat.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/expat/expat/?hideattic=0&pathrev=V20000512
For Fedora and Debian, no ticket for Torcs but Fedora team quality has not
accept speed-dreams for that, and the txml is the same in Torcs.
look in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=785371 comment 10

Cheers
Xavier

PS: I will commite new version speed-dreams with good txml version this
night

Well, so it is some thing to fix upstream. I will talk with TORCS people.

if no answered by Torc's team, I can patch the rpm but not before the
Release, so for Mageia 3

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

No, upstream don't want to change their code.
So I will try to patch with expat as we made on Speed Dreams.

Is this still valid? Leave open?

Comment 12 Nic Baxter 2015-03-29 05:06:54 CEST
the patch must have happened as no libtxml appears to be installed. So fixed.

Resolution: (none) => FIXED
