I'm not questioning whether it's legal to distribute non-free firmware alongside the GPL. I'm merely saying that the firmware _is_ non-free, which should be reflected by the ebuild licenses. > So it's a pointless effort. To you maybe, but it's important to some. Note that updating the licenses would only affect those with strict ACCEPT_LICENSE settings anyway. I don't understand why you'd oppose the change.
