Mark Struberg updated DBCP-525:
-------------------------------
Summary: license problem with latest Apache commons-dbcp (was: license
problem with latest Apache commons-pool)
> license problem with latest Apache commons-dbcp
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DBCP-525
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DBCP-525
> Project: Commons DBCP
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.5.0
> Reporter: Mark Struberg
> Assignee: Gary Gregory
> Priority: Blocker
>
> our pom includes various JBoss artifacts.
> * jboss-parent license 'Public Domain' without any further clarification.
> Would need a clarification imo.
> * org.jboss.narayana.jta:narayana-jta LGPL
> * org.jboss.spec.javax.transaction:jboss-transaction-api_1.2_spec LGPL
> * org.jboss:jboss-transaction-spi LGPL
> * org.jboss.logging:jboss-logging LGPL
> According to the following LEGAL ticket those dependencies should imo not be
> there as they are required in the build:
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-207
> My interpretation is that having LGPL dependencies are oki-ish as long as
> they are purely optional. E.g. if they are only in an optional profile in the
> build and implement some public api.
> Those deps only got added recently. The commit message is not really clear
> what it is about.
