Hi all. Working on packaging openide-util (in order to use it in freehep) I realized that it is distributed under a dual license CDDL and GPL-2 (_without_ the "or any later version" clause). Freehep is distributed under LGPL-2.1 or later. TTBOMK, these licenses are incompatible: the only way to satisfy these conditions is to promote freehep to GPL-2 (without +), as permitted by point 3 in LGPL-2.1, and distribute Debian package under GPL-2 only, loosing LGPL and "any later version" freedoms. Do you see any other possible solution? I'll write also upstream to point out this problem. Thanks, Giovanni. -- Giovanni Mascellani <mascellani@poisson.phc.unipi.it> Pisa, Italy Web: http://poisson.phc.unipi.it/~mascellani Jabber: g.mascellani@jabber.org / giovanni@elabor.homelinux.org
