Description Jeroen van Meeuwen 2007-09-07 11:02:40 UTC
Description of problem:
rpmlint-0.80-1.el5 from EPEL complains "GPLv2" is an invalid license

How reproducible:
rpmlint over an RPM with license GPLv2

Actual results:
$ rpmlint ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/revisor-2.0.4.3-7.noarch.rpm
RPMLint over /home/kanarip/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/revisor-2.0.4.3-7.noarch.rpm:
W: revisor invalid-license GPLv2
$

Expected results:
$ rpmlint ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/revisor-2.0.4.3-7.noarch.rpm
RPMLint over /home/kanarip/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/revisor-2.0.4.3-7.noarch.rpm:

I'm planning to update EL-5 to 0.81 which contains a fix soonish.  Thorsten can
possibly comment on what the plans for EL-4 are (I'm not aware of any grave
incompatibilities nor why it wouldn't work on EL-4 too, but I can't test it).

Comment 2 Ville Skyttä 2007-09-13 06:08:02 UTC
Fixed in rpmlint-0.81-2.el5 (currently in the testing repo).
