Yes, that's what I also think. I mailed Jakub Jelinek (native gcc's maintainer) a week ago and suggested that the license tag should read "GPLv3+ and GPLv3+ with exceptions and GPLv2+ with exceptions", but it seems he wasn't at office last week. Pinged again today. Even if the license tag is slightly wrong, I think it should match the one in the native package and the change to license should propagate from the native gcc to mingw32-gcc. -- Kalev Lember _______________________________________________ fedora-mingw mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fedora-mingw
