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.
What if in the source package, the license file contains (by mistake) an additional newline? Who should do the actual checking, that the license is really GPL (whatever else)?
That's not a problem. For instance there's a pile of GPLv2 variations in the licenses package ;)
In this hash scheme, how can user display license using pager or editor? ???
Also note that some packages have slightly modified licenses (like: author allows linking against some non-GPLed library) - will these licenses be bundled together with those "standard" ones?
AFAICS, the package contains all possible licenses found in packages. Michal --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
