Hi all, I'm packaging some software that is distributed under a commercial license. The software itself is publicly available from the author's website, no need to log in or accept anything there. After installation, only a small part is usable, but by entering a (demo) license key, the rest can be enabled without additional downloading/installing.
During installation though, the installer makes you accept their license terms. There is an unattended/non-graphical installation option, so I'm able to have nix build and package everything. However, this means the unattended-install-options file needs to contain some "I accept the license" field, which I don't think I should set if I want to include this in nixpkgs. What's the best way to deal with something like this? An option that came to mind is using a nixpkgs config option to accept the license. An assertion in the nix expression will make sure nothing gets downloaded/built on systems that haven't explicitly accepted the license by enabling that option (such as hydra). Would that be ok? Or are there better options available for handling this?
