--- Comment #28 from Michal Schmidt <mschm...@redhat.com> --- Notes about the license of src/ucs/datastruct/sglib.h: This is SGLIB version 1.0.3 (C) by Marian Vittek, Bratislava, http://www.xref-tech.com/sglib, 2003-5 License Conditions: You can use a verbatim copy (including this copyright notice) of sglib freely in any project, commercial or not. You can also use derivative forms freely under terms of Open Source Software license or under terms of GNU Public License. If you need to use a derivative form in a commercial project, or you need sglib under any other license conditions, contact the author. The first two conditions are sufficient to make the license OK for Fedora. Third condition is a bit confusing. I think the word "commercial" in there stands for "not open source". There is a clarification at http://sglib.sourceforge.net/#license : Basically, I only care that you do not remove the Copyright notice from the source code when using Sglib. More precisely: you can use Sglib or its derivative forms (under the condition that the Copyright notice is preserved) in any project, whether commercial or not, free of charges. In particular, you can use Sglib under the terms of any license defined as an open source license by the Open Source Initiative (see http://www.opensource.org/). This includes most common open source licenses such as the BSD license and GNU GPL. If you need to use sglib under any particular license conditions, contact the author. OK, so it is a very permissive free software (meta-)license. Also note that though the header says "version 1.0.3", the source file matches version 1.0.4 as available from https://sourceforge.net/projects/sglib/files/sglib/ (the sglib developer simply forgot to bump the version in the comment). You may as well add: Provides: bundled(sglib) = 1.0.4 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
