* GnuPG: https://github.com/zopencommunity/gpgport/tree/main/patches * Libgcrypt: https://github.com/zopencommunity/libgcryptport/tree/main/patches * Libassuan: https://github.com/zopencommunity/libassuanport/tree/main/patches * Libksba: https://github.com/zopencommunity/libksbaport/tree/main/patches * Libgpgerror: https://github.com/zopencommunity/libgpgerrorport/tree/main/patches Some of those should match the license of the original component. Libgrypt is under LGPL-2.1-or-later and some parts under GPL-2.0-or-later. https://gnupg.org/software/libgcrypt/index.html Best is to check for each componentn. still BSD something: * NPTH: https://github.com/zopencommunity/npthport/tree/main/patches * Ntbls: https://github.com/zopencommunity/ntbtlsport/tree/main/patches * Pinentry: https://github.com/zopencommunity/pinentryport/tree/main/patches > We can't accept this. The > whole thing seems to be under Apache 2.0 License - this is incompatible > to the GPL While it is clear that one step is to get the licenses to be upwards compatible, just clarify further: In general: Many BSD style licenses are compatible to GPL-2.0-or-later and Apache-2.0 is compatible with GPL-3.0-or-later which GnuPG itself is licensed under. But https://github.com/zopencommunity/gpgport displayes the Apache-2.0 license and reads "A free software implementation of the GNU Privacy Guard" this is a bit missleading. I suggest to add some text to clarify which files are subject to the Apache-2.0 which are under different licenses. The binary build for instance will most likely be subject to GPL-3.0-or-later as a complete piece of works (if it contains GnuPG). :) https://github.com/zopencommunity/gpgport/releases/tag/STABLE_gpgport_3214 Regards, Bernhard -- https://intevation.de/~bernhard +49 541 33 508 3-3 Intevation GmbH, Osnabrück, DE; Amtsgericht Osnabrück, HRB 18998 Geschäftsführer: Frank Koormann, Bernhard Reiter
