> You better check the license issue with William. Code should be GPL 2 or
GPL2+, but there are exceptions if a package is optional and some other
conditions - I've never fully understood under what conditions code can
be GLP 3. But you might find you can only use the latest version which is
GPL 2, and not a GPL 3 version.
Well, cvxopt is an optional package, so it must be in the same boat as
jmath,
or some gap packages, that are also not GPL 2.

It should build it on 't2' easily though.
