Hello!
While trying to submit mldonkey package into Fedora Linux, we found some
licensing issues:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452584
========================
There are some licencing issues with the sources detected by
licensecheck.pl
script (from Debian). Please notify upstream about them. I've looked at the
problematic files (with UNKNOWN licences) and found two notable issues:
/src/utils/lib/md5.{c,h} are under Zlib licence, so you need to add "Zlib"
to
the License: tag.
./src/utils/lib/md4.h is under a licence I wasn't able to identify which
doesn't explicitly give permission to distribute modified versions which
seems
to make it non-free. I'm blocking FE-Legal pending legal review.
========================
See attached log:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=325313
Please, add necessary licensing headers where possible.
