This is a minor bug in that the package can still be used because the openSUSE project owns the copyright (IIUC). It cannot be redistributed in its present shape though. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. { rpm -qi obs-service-download_files; } 2. { rpm -qd obs-service-download_files; } Actual Results: 1. License : GPL-2.0+ 2. Expected Results: 2. /usr/share/doc/packages/obs-service-download_files/COPYING -- 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.
