Paolo Castagna commented on ANY23-37:
-------------------------------------
> fastutil is ASL
> dsiutils is LGPL
The author of fastutil and dsiutils (i.e. Sebastiano Vigna -->
http://vigna.dsi.unimi.it/) has changed the license of fastutil to ASL when
moving from version 5.1.5 to 6.0.0.
fastutil is in Maven Central, while dsiutils is not.
Maybe, dsiutils could/should follow and change to ASL as well as being
published/released in the Maven Central repository.
Asking Sebastiano directly is certainly an option on the table.
> LGPL'ed components cannot be included in distribution packages

> Project: Apache Any23
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Simone Tripodi
> Priority: Critical
>
> While reviewing dependencies license, I noticed that the
> it.unimi.dsi:dsiutils:2.0.1 transitive dependency is released under LGPL
> release, so it cannot be included in the non-maven binary archives.
> A first turnaround solution could be avoiding it is included and reporting it
> in the README.
