Hi Bob,

Thank you very much for fast response with information:
Probably I do not ask the first question precisely.

I mean the source code from our project that will be uploaded to the
fossology for scanning purposes:

1. is the memory need for the fossology depending on the largest git blob
(of several git repositories), or is the combined size of all git blobs
(pointed to by HEAD in all git repositories) is required?



Also during installation of fossology 2.5 I have got this information:

WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
  fossology-common fossology-db fossology-web fossology-scheduler
fossology-ununpack fossology-copyright fossology-nomos fossology-pkgagent
  fossology-buckets fossology-mimetype fossology-delagent
fossology-wgetagent fossology
Install these packages without verification [y/N]?

Maybe do you know hot to avoid this Warning ? Is it possible to
authenticate the packages mentioned above?

Thank you very much for information.

BR,
Konrad
