Recently I had two packages rejected from Factory (including an important part of KDE3) because they include parts licensed under Artistic license.

But it seems that Factory includes packages, licensed under Artistic, for example,

Just for the record, it looks as though that list of licenses was imported directly from the 'corresponding' Fedora page. Fedora decided (based on the FSF explanation) that the Artistic 1 license is not acceptable. The license is not approved by the OSI (Open Source Institute) either (http://opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
