Hello,

the 'spacewalk-search' package is (according to spacewalk-search.spec) licensed 
as GPLv2,
but apparently it contains numerous Apache licenses throughout the files listed 
below.

The GPL-2.0 and the Apache licenses are not compatible with each other, 
according to the
Free Software Foundation:http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#apache2.
This does most likely not pose a problem for the package, as the files appear 
to be mostly
content as opposed to code. Could you still please confirm that the Apache 
licensed files
are not actually being linked with GPL files?

I guess you would have to add both license texts to the package and it should 
be reflected
in the specfile (spacewalk-search.spec) as well:

"License: GPLv2" -->  "License: GPL-2.0 and Apache-2.0"

Thank you,
Johannes Renner
