Yes.
definitely.
We _must_ rip out the BSD-4 licensed code from our source. We _can_
simply rip it out, and then add a Debian-specific patch reapplying one
of those alternative files,
i don't see the need for that, as this file is only needed if and only
if the system does not provide an inet_aton itself (currently i can only
check on linux (not kFreeBSD or hurd), and libc6 does come with an
implementation.
so the file is not needed, and no replacement is needed.
we need not ship the file, and be save and happy.
but would be much better if upstream did it.
which still holds true, as in this case we won't even need to exclude an
offending file, but just take upstream as it is.
the main problem i do see now is, that the offending code has been
copied into a separate file but not moved (it still exists in a cre
component that we cannot exclude)
Well, I deleted the inet_aton() code from os.c yesterday:
http://gmerlin.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gmerlin/gmerlin_avdecoder/lib/os.c?r1=1.3&r2=1.4
And also os.c can be kicked out as well since it contains only a poll()
implementation,
which is available in glibc.
I think just patching 2 files out of Makefile.am should already do the trick.
