Summary: License: field in gettext-devel and gettext-libs should be "GPLv3+ and
LGPLv2+"

Summary: License: field in gettext-devel and gettext-libs
should be "GPLv3+ and LGPLv2+"
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: low
Priority: low
Component: gettext
AssignedTo: petersen(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: rfontana(a)redhat.com
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: petersen(a)redhat.com, i18n-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Classification: Fedora
Target Release: ---
Currently, the License: field corresponding to the binary subpackages
gettext-devel and gettext-libs has: "LGPLv2+".
gettext-devel contains /usr/include/autosprintf.h which has an LGPLv2+ notice,
and /usr/include/gettext-po.h which has a GPLv3+ notice.
gettext-libs contains /usr/lib/libasprintf.so and /usr/lib/libgettextpo.so
It seems fairly clear from the source code for gettext that upstream intends
for libasprintf to be LGPLv2+ and intends libgettextpo to be GPLv3+.
Therefore, the License: field for these subpackages should have "GPLv3+ and
LGPLv2+".

I am still wondering whether to do the easy thing (ie just tweaking
the license fields) or repackaging to reflect better the license differences.

Thanks - I added GPLv3+ to gettext-libs in gettext-0.18.1.1-5.fc15.
Do you think a backport to F14 is necessary?

A backport might be nice but doesn't seem necessary. If I remember correctly,
this bug originated in a question from a RHEL customer concerning the
corresponding RHEL package, and an explanation was given. The main point of the
bug report was to correct the license label information going forward. I wonder
whether in situations like this I should be filing bugs on the RHEL package (or
cloning the bug for RHEL?)? Regardless I don't think it's very important given
that a correction was made in Fedora and we can always point to that fact.

Ok, I think in general filing against Fedora is fine,
unless prompt action is required for RHEL.
