I was considering emailing the patch author and asking him if he would wish to help. The package conventions have a statement about offensive stuff but I'm pretty sure that applies to what the user sees, is bitch x
Exactly. Don't bother creating an extra burden for yourself maintaing that package by proactively bowing down before some corporate legal department. Whoever feels offended by the license then can send you a patch and maintain that patch in the future. It is not *your* business to do that useless work. Better spend your time on getting the package to work.
still in openSUSE? The patch actually alters the license statement headers in the source files, is that allowed?
In this particular case it is allowed, because the license explicitly allows it: [taken from http://sam.zoy.org/wtfpl/ - scroll down to FAQ] | Can’t you change the wording? It’s inappropriate / childish / not | corporate-compliant. | | What the fuck is not clear in “DO WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT TO”? If you do | not like the license terms, just relicense the work under another | license. Have fun :-) seife -- Stefan Seyfried "Any ideas, John?"
