Now that an automatic license check is done on packages submitted to factory there is one more twist to accepting and forwarding to openSUSE:Factory. One particular package from multimedia:libs libkate had "|BSD3c ; Other uncritical OpenSource License" in the license field and was rejected for having "||Other uncritical OpenSource License" so I removed it ran "licensecheck --verbose -r libkate-0.3.8" and only saw this (apart from a GNU header in ltmain.sh) : Use, distribution and reproduction of this library is governed by a BSD style source license included with this source in the file 'COPYING'. Please read these terms before distributing. */ so I left ||BSD3c. This has been declined as well and it feels like my community unpaid workload has increased ten fold. I'm not sure that I will accept anymore third party submissions to multimedia:libs or apps as there is no clear indication why libkate was declined the second time and I see that at least another package has a license problem which I can't fix without clear guidelines on what is supposed to be in the license field. Looking at another package submitted, it has "License: GNU General Public License version 2 or later (GPL v2 or later)" in the spec file. If I had worked on this package I would have altered it to "||License: GPLv2+" but now I'm not even sure about that. Do I give up or is the information that "License digger" uses publicly available?
