--- Comment #2 from Aleksei Bavshin alebastr89@gmail.com --- Hello Jakub,
Thanks for the review!
The licensecheck found following:
All 3 files are wayland protocol definitions which are not linked directly into the binary. These are processed with `wayland-scanner` to a C source and the existing practice was to consider these generated sources licensed the same as the main project. I'm going to add a following comment above the License tag, based on what we have in wlroots.spec:
# The main source is MIT # The included wayland protocol files: # external/river-status-unstable-v1.xml: ISC # external/wlr-foreign-toplevel-management-unstable-v1.xml: HPND-sell-variant # external/wlr-layer-shell-unstable-v1.xml: HPND-sell-variant # Those files are processed to C-compilable files by the # `wayland-scanner` binary during build and don't alter # the main license of the binaries linking with them by # the underlying licenses.
The release number for older versions is unexpected. I don't see any reason why to deviate from the "Simple versioning" scheme here
I've been maintaining the package in my copr for wayland-related things for a while. Pre-release versioning ensures that if I import the package into Fedora repos with the proper Release tag, it will have a higher NVR and will seamlessly replace the copr build (and it looks like I forgot to do that for 1.8.0 :( ). I'm not going to preserve the changelog from copr anyways, as it does not carry any information useful for Fedora.
