[...] > -LICENSE = "GPLv2" > +LICENSE = "GPLv2+" Doe we want this? I think most GPLv2 code carries the clause: "This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version." Yet currently virtually all of these have GPL or GPLv2 as LICENSE v2+ versions: enblend/plotutils_2.6.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" ffmpeg/ffmpeg_svn.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" gnome/epiphany_2.30.2.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" gpe-package/gpe-package_0.4.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" libftdi/libftdi_0.18.bb:LICENSE = "LGPL GPLv2+linking exception" libnfo/libnfo.inc:LICENSE = "LGPLv2+" lzo/lzo2_2.03.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" raw-tools/exiv2_0.20.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" sysvinit/sysvinit_2.86.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" udev/udev.inc:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" udev/udev_151.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" udev/udev_154.bb:LICENSE = "GPLv2+" _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
