Bug#750867: kde-runtime: openssl license exception needed

[James Cowgill <james410@cowgill.org.uk>]

Source: kde-runtime
Version: 4:4.13.1-1
Severity: serious
Tags: sid jessie

Hi,

The file /usr/lib/kde4/kio_sftp.so links against libssh which in turn links
against openssl. Since the sftp code whichs links to libssh is licensed under
the GPL, it needs a license exception to allow the linking.

Alternatively you could prod bug #676650 which would provide an alternate libssh
built against gnutls.

See https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2004/05/msg00595.html
