Bug#445726: libjinglebase0.3-0: Parts of libjinglebase is GPLv2 licensed and it links to OpenSSL
Ar 07/10/2007 am 23:03, ysgrifennodd Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo: Package: libjinglebase0.3-0 Version: 0.3.11-1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 2.3 In the copyright file of libjinglebase, the Affine code is said to be licensed under the GPL version 2 or later. OpenSSL license is incompatible with GPL, as known by many. The usual options are: * ask permission to the said code to relicense (perhaps an exception allowing to link to OpenSSL) * remove or rewrite the said Affine code * remove OpenSSL support when building * try to use GNUTLS compatibility with OpenSSL * replace OpenSSL with GNUTLS or NSS, rewriting SSL/TLS support I can't find the code this copyright statement refers to. Presumably the code was removed upstream since that copyright notice was written. This suggests that the appropriate fix is to just amend the copyright notice. -- Dafydd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
