Hello,

as the symlink points to filenames which is the md5sum of the license itself. i think this is not an issue. Can you explain in a bit more detail how such symlinks and filenames make sure that the right license texts are installed in the run-time system in any case?
The filename is an md5sum of the license text. So a new version of the "same" (as in same name) license will have a different filename. So if you link to /.../ebf4e8b49780ab187d51bd26aaa022c6, it will allways be that exact version of the GPL2 license.
MD5 (or any other hash) guarantees that link is not pointing to wrong license file but it does not assure that such file license-<hash>.txt is installed on system. I think that's the issue Johannes wanted to point out. -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol RUSNAK SUSE LINUX, s.r.o Package Maintainer Lihovarska 1060/12 PGP 0xA6917144 19000 Praha 9, CR prusnak[at]suse.cz http://www.suse.cz --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
