Why we are waiting for the legal analysis, it would be awesome if you could explain this "does not scale" thing.
While, not why, of course.
Because it's already tedious to correctly set License tags for each sub-package. Maintaining the appropriate file-list mirror and keeping both consistent adds a point of failure that is not necessary because the information is redundant. Either create License tags automagically from the file lists (or package contents) or the other way around. As separating the license text from the package seems to be permitted (only provide the copy in one of the many sub-packages), separating it to a system-required and thus force-installed SPDX-license-texts package seems to be workable as well, and sounds very well-scaling. Legal, please analyze that proposal and produce that SPDX-license-texts package. -- 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.
