[Bug 656628] Re: [Maverick] License text missing
Sorry for reporting then, but as far as I am aware and unless my english is very bad (this might be true) according to the link that you posted the GNU foundation explicitly tells developers to add the well known: -- one line to give the program's name and an idea of what it does.

[Bug 656628] Re: [Maverick] License text missing
I understand why you would think this to be the case and I wonder myself why they didn't add more. Since this is more of a question than a bug I am going to move it to the Questions area. Feel free to follow up on it in there and see if you get an answer to this. I will do the same as I am interested in an answer as well. Thanks for taking the time to report this though! ** Changed in: gnome-system-monitor (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = New ** Changed in: gnome-system-monitor (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid ** Converted to question: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-monitor/+question/128510 -- [Maverick] License text missing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/656628 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The license is not missing it is there. GPLv2+ is the correct license.
