Hi Michael,

Right. Actually that's wrongly mentioned in the spec file. I intend to release
the entire package under an LGPL license.

code-editor is derived from QtCreator which has an internal architecture based
on plugins implementing the various functionalities and services of the tool,
and these are released by Nokia under a Commercial and LGPL licenses.
code-editor reuses a subset of these plugins, sometimes applying slight changes
to mainly remove a little bit of functionality, where this one should be
provided by another plugin that I didn't pickup for inclusion in code-editor.

The same applies for QtCreator in terms of licensing. QtCreator acts as a
loader/containers for these plugins and in the case of code-editor I'm actually
bringing in some few modifications, such as to open files from the command
line, re-organize the application's menu a little bit, changing the name of the
application, to the original source code.

Yes, both the srpm and the spec files are available at:

http://ilyes.fedorapeople.org/code-editor-1-1.fc14.src.rpm
http://ilyes.fedorapeople.org/code-editor.spec

> Requires:       qt >= 4.7.0
> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Explicit_Requires

I'll fix that asap and publish the new spec file and package on fedorapeople.

Thanks!
