What the BSD 3 clause license expressly states is: - Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution. This clause was chosen because it reflects the actual situation with respect to the _binary_ rpm (not the libogg package as a whole). Thus, the license text _is_ included with the libogg package. Technical reasoning as to the best way to package the libogg components (binary _and_ source) before 11.4 led to the shared library being split into its own small binary rpm. The documentation and COPYING files _were_ included in the libogg* packaging and _were_ copied to the appropriate directory during installation of the package. The license was included in the For libogg >= 11.4 that technical reasoning is different and lead to the packaging being more in line with what you are requesting. IMO the situation >= 11.4 certainly is better - I agree with you there. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
