Package: chromium
Version: 111.0.5563.64-1
Severity: wishlist
Unicode produced a number of files years ago that contained a problematic
license with the following restriction:
"Unicode, Inc. hereby grants the right to freely use the information supplied
in this file in the creation of products supporting the Unicode Standard"
This is not free because it prevents the use of the file in ways that do not
support the Unicode standard.
In 2004 Unicode relicensed their files under a different license that does not
contain this restriction.
These is their current copyright and terms of use statement:
http://www.unicode.org/copyright.html
Which links to their current license:
https://www.unicode.org/license.txt
For many years, Chromium integrated an older copy of `Convert-UTF` with the
problematic license. When the problem was brought to their attention they
updated the file's license.
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/google-breakpad/issues/detail?id=270
https://chromium.googlesource.com/breakpad/breakpad/+/14bbefbd9600e08d6a34d7250faa8bc9dba2113e%5E%21/
The Debian Chromium package currently includes three other files that still
contain this problematic license in their headers.
src/3rdparty/chromium/third_party/icu/source/data/mappings/iso-8859_10-1998.ucm
src/3rdparty/chromium/third_party/icu/source/data/mappings/iso-8859_11-2001.ucm
src/3rdparty/chromium/third_party/icu/source/data/mappings/iso-8859_14-1998.ucm
Even though these files are contained under the `chromium` subdirectory, they
do not exist in the upstream Chromium git repository:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/refs/heads/main/third_party/
I am uncertain where exactly they enter the stream of code that is packaged as
Chromium on Debian. Wherever it is, they can be updated with the correct
license.
Identical files (except for the licenses) are found in the Unicode GitHub
repository:
https://github.com/unicode-org/icu/tree/main/icu4c/source/data/mappings
These were updated to the non-problematic license in 2015:
https://unicode-org.atlassian.net/browse/ICU-22007
A copy of the bad license also appears in:
src/3rdparty/chromium/third_party/breakpad/breakpad/LICENSE
It needs to be removed, and, if breakpad uses the ICU files, replaced with the
license at:
https://www.unicode.org/license.txt
Qt WebEngine includes the same problematic files. There is an upstream bug
filed with Qt at:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-112008
There is also a Lintian bug regarding the detection of this problematic license:
