* What I always cannot find out is under what license x11iraf is released. Would you please verify? * I just tried to rebuild but it failed. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=203879 I asked in the iraf.net forum about the xiraf license. Here is the thread: http://iraf.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=86447&highlight=fedora Basically, xiraf is covered under the iraf license, that I attach here. I asked them to include the copyright file in the net release. Created attachment 234441 [details]
Copyright of x11iraf
I asked in the iraf.net forum about the xiraf license. Here is the thread: http://iraf.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=86447&highlight=fedora Basically, xiraf is covered under the iraf license, that I attach here. I asked them to include the copyright file in the net release. (In reply to comment #3) > Created an attachment (id=234441) [edit] > Copyright of x11iraf This is MIT, acceptable, would you fix the build failure first? I can't get to reproduce the failure. I have built it in mock for i386 and x86_64. Could it be a problem with ppc? Well, I tried i386 x86_64 ppc ppc64 and only ppc build fails. ppc: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=218341 i386: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=218338 build.log differs at the beginning between i386 and ppc at below: -------------------------------------------------------------- + mkdir -p app-defaults make arch X11IRAFDIR=$PWD make[1]: Entering directory `/builddir/build/BUILD/x11iraf-1.5' -Configuring X11IRAF for redhat... -Restore archived redhat objects... +Configuring X11IRAF for linuxppc... +Restore archived linuxppc objects... No object archive found; full sysgen will be needed. ---------------------------------------------------------------- So perhaps resize file are created under different directory. The related points are perhaps in mkarch file. ---------------------------------------------------------------- 40 case linux: 41 if (`$uname_cmd -m` == "ppc") then 42 set mach = "linuxppc" 43 else 44 if (-f /etc/redhat-release) then 45 set mach = "redhat" 46 else if (-f /etc/SuSE-release) then 47 set mach = "suse" 48 else 49 set mach = "linux" 50 endif 51 endif 52 breaksw ---------------------------------------------------------------- Well, for 1.5-0.4: * ppc build issue - Please fix ppc build * On description section: - Please specify full URL for Source0 - Fix license - And include real license text - Also write a document which notifies that you have already asked upstream about license issue and upstream surely answered that this is licensed under MIT. * Desktop files - At least desktop file is needed for xgterm. By the way: If you don't have ppc machine (I don't have ppc), you can try scratch build on koji: $ koji build --scratch <target> <srpm_you_want_to_try> Currently <target> can be: dist-f9, dist-f8-updates-candidate, or dist-fc7-updates-candidate. * Well, now it builds in ppc (thnks for the tip) http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=220167 * The license (COPYRIGHT) and the explanation (README.COPYRIGHT) are now included. The url in Source0 is also included * I have added a desktop file for xgterm Spec URL: http://sergiopr.fedorapeople.org/x11iraf.spec SRPM URL: http://sergiopr.fedorapeople.org/x11iraf-1.5-0.4.DEV.fc6.src.rpm Upss, the source rpm is http://sergiopr.fedorapeople.org/x11iraf-1.5-0.5.DEV.fc7.src.rpm Now I checked the whole source codes. This time I checked only license issue and have not checked any packaging issue yet. * License issue - The licenses of the following codes are very problematic and cannot be accepted for Fedora _IMO_. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ./obm-deep/ObmW/HTML.c ./obm-deep/ObmW/HTML.h ... and some other files under ./obm-deep/ObmW/ ... and similar files under ./obm/ObmW/ ./obm/ObmW/Table.c ./obm/ObmW/Table.h ... and some other files under ./obm/ObmW ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Other licenses - The following has zlib/libpng license: ---------------------------------------------------------------- ./obm-deep/Tcl/regexp.c ./obm/Tcl/regexp.c ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Many TCL related files are licensed under TCL.

You should make an attempt to contact the copyright holder (looks like it is UIUC) and see if they will relicense that code. Sorry. :/ I've mailed Mr. Romanovski, I'm hoping he will help us. No response at all :(( I think we can close the bug report. xgterm is not needed to run Iraf and I'm not interested in this package anymore Okay. Then once closing. If you got interested again, please feel free to open a new review request and mark this bug as a duplicate of the new one. |
