Title:
Require the user to confirm the license before downloading a driver if
it is non-free or if it has patent issues
Status in Jockey driver manager:
Invalid
Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in “jockey” source package in Intrepid:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
OpenPrinting marks all non-free drivers and also all drivers with
patent issues with appropriate flags. These drivers should be
installed into a free operating system only if the user agrees with
the non-free license or with the patent issues. Also manufacturers can
require that the user has to confirm the license.
Therefore let Jockey pop up a window with the license text with
buttons to confirm or reject in the case that the driver is non-free
or if it has patent issues. In the case that the user confirms,
download and install the driver, in case of rejection, go back to the
Jockey window where the user selects the driver and confirms its
download.
