Hi,
Today I got a bunch of new packages rejected for Factory because of an inexact license tag in the spec file ("GPL" instead of "GPLv2 or later"). How is a packager supposed to know? What are acceptable strings in the license tag? Even the example in the wiki¹ has 'GPL'.
And even some yast2 packages have 'License: GPL' ...
I extracted the License: field from all packages in SUSE, so it should be some clue[1] for it. But volunteers for cleaning of it are welcome ;-)
Pavol - what's the state of Licensing Guidelines[2]? There can be a list of allowed licenses.
