Re: Mass change of LicenseRef-KDE-Accepted-* licenses
Dne 29. 01. 24 v 13:58 Ben Beasley napsal(a): Could you please double-check this change? I noticed that in spacebar, LicenseRef-KDE-Accepted-GPL was the actual name of a license file in the %files section; this was replaced with (GPL-2.0-only OR GPL-3.0-only), which causes the package to FTBFS. Looking at the grep output you originally posted, it seems like plasma-phonebook has a similar problem, and kf6-kglobalaccel, kf6-kjobwidgets, and kf6-kservice had filenames in comments replaced, which won’t break their builds but isn’t correct either. Indeed. This possibility did not cross my mind. I fixed all of them and fixed my grep'o'foo script and find only the cases you reported. Nothing else. I checked scratch and it was mass rebuilt before my change, so it was build sucessfully. So I did not rebuilt it. I still appreciate that you are cleaning this up! And I appreciate you understand human mistake. Still - I am sorry for this. -- Miroslav Suchy, RHCA Red Hat, Manager, Packit and CPT, #brno, #fedora-buildsys -- ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue

Thinking about this some more, it's a little confusing and a specific case of how we have been somewhat mixing up two issues, (1) approval of licenses for Fedora, and (2) policy on what should go in the License tag. I've been trying to revise the legal docs to clear some of this up. The KDE formulation is basically an alternative to the traditional "or any later version" approach to *GPL licensing. Basically, instead of allowing blanket use of future versions authored by the FSF, KDE is saying you can use future versions authored by the FSF and authorized by KDE. I'll call this the KDE "proxy" permission because the term "proxy" is used with this scenario in mind in *GPLv3. "LicenseRef-" is an SPDX construct that allows creation of custom license identifiers (i.e., license identifiers not on the SPDX license list). SPDX has to date chosen not to adopt any sort of namespacing system for LicenseRef-s despite some proposals. So the KDE LicenseRefs are not Fedora LicenseRefs. That's one complication here, resulting from multiple differing uses of SPDX license expressions by two projects. Another issue was that I found that KDE has not had a stable definition of at least one of these LicenseRefs, so we can't just easily adopt the KDE LicenseRef as a Fedora LicenseRef pointing to wherever KDE defines what it means since we can't be sure that KDE might not revise it again. There's no reason why the KDE formulation should be *disapproved* -- in that sense, maybe we should add some representation of it to Fedora License Data somehow. But the existing Fedora approach (to the extent there was any guidance on this), from the Callaway System Era (i.e. prior to the adoption of SPDX license expressions), was not to represent the KDE proxy permission in License tags. So the thought was not to depart from the Callaway tradition. Logically, there's no basis for disapproving the KDE proxy permission since it's a subset of a permission that Fedora already approves (the general *GPL "or later" permission). So: don't use the KDE proxy permission in License tags. But we might have to revise the docs and Fedora License Data in some way.
