Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Checked on 1.2.7-28 (should apply to all versions) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (possibly other releases) 1. up2date --get-source up2date --get-source krb5-libs 2. rpm -Uvh /var/spool/up2date/krb5-1.2.7-28.src.rpm 3. cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/ 4. rpmbuild -bp krb5.spec 5. cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/krb5-1.2.7/ 6. View src/include/krb5/AddressXlation.h, src/include/krb5/MacTCP.h, src/lib/krb4/DNR.c, src/mac/libraries/KerberosHeaders.h and src/windows/gina/ginastub.c Actual Results: No mention of the usage and distribution license in all files. Expected Results: A clause specifying a license (like GPL) for use and distribution clearly mentioned in all files. Additional info: These files are not needed on the Linux platform and could be safely stripped from the package.
