Wrong. The GPL does not allow any addtional license restrictions to be applied to a GPL'ed package. If mixing non-GPL'ed sources into GPL-derived packages, all these non-GPL'ed sources must be GPL-compatible, which in sum renders the whole package GPL'ed ("GPL as umbrella". Individual files under different licenses, the package as a whole under the GPL) As the Waqf is not an OSI-approved nor FSF-approved license, with many people having doubts on the Waqf not being GPL-compatible, I consider this package to violate copyright laws. > Fedora doing this, it contain many programs every program has a license and > Fedora as mixed has its license. Cf. above. GPL as umbrella.
