Looks like qlz is available under the GPL-3, although the upstream packaging
is, um, minimal in its license statements. I think a _better_ patch would make
it a ./configure option, but I don't think the current state should be a
blocker on getting the package in Fedora.


On another note, though: the /etc/lessfs.cfg file is really a _per filesystem_
configuration, not a global one. This is somewhat strange. This is probably a
discussion for upstream, but it's important enough that it should get resolved
before stuff starts going into production. Instead of /etc/lessfs.cfg, I think
there should be /etc/lessfs/sample.cfg, and that should be configured with
sensible defaults with the backing storage in (in /var/lib/lessfs/sample,
maybe?) instead of the current default "/data".
