Otherwise you will have to open a bug for every shared library we have. -- 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.

Comments to a bug do not make a policy. Any package derived from a GPL source MUST carry the GPL with it. It is not my whim, it is a requirement of the copyright holder, and the copyright holder can sue openSUSE any time for failing to comply. So, even if a formal policy appears, it would be hilarious to have a feature request stating that openSUSE should not break the law. -- 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.

Any statement in a policy that prohibits the distributor from respecting the copyright owner’s rights is void because no internal policy can override law (unless we are some sort of a mafia, that is). So, that way or the other, such a policy would make no sense. Of course, such a policy could cover various other things, but I have no opinion on them (I do not even know what they would be) so I cannot comment, let alone initiate a discussion. -- 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.
