Description James Livingston 2011-05-11 05:29:58 UTC 
Description of problem:
setup-ds-admin.pl requires that you agree to be bound by the agreement in "LICENSE.TXT". That is no file with that name.

I guess it is referring to /usr/share/doc/389-admin-1.1.16/LICENSE, but since it's asking for legal agreement, it would be good not to guess and point to the exact path of the file I'm supposed to be agreeing to


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.1.16-1.fc14

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run setup-ds-admin.pl
2. Take note of the file name it says the licence is in
3. Try to find the file, to read it before agreeing
  
Actual results:
Cannot find the file

Expected results:
To be able to find the file

There are actually several different licenses
directory server is GPLv2 + plugin exception
admin server is mostly GPLv2 except for the Apache modules which are APL2
the rest of the components are GPLv2 or LGPLv2

What about something like this:

BY SETTING UP AND USING THIS SOFTWARE YOU ARE CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY
THE TERMS OF THE LICENSES OF THE DIRECTORY SERVER AND OTHER COMPONENTS
USED BY THIS SOFTWARE.  THE LICENSES FOR DIRECTORY SERVER AND OTHER
COMPONENTS ARE FOUND IN FILES CALLED 'LICENSE' IN THE DOCUMENTATION
DIRECTORY FOR EACH COMPONENT.  IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS
OF THE LICENSES, PLEASE DO NOT SET UP OR USE THIS SOFTWARE.

Do you agree to the license terms? [no]:


Is this too cumbersome?

I think that this is a good idea since there are different licenses for different components.

Just spoke to Richard Fontana - according to him, we don't need to display or require the user to accept any EULA during setup.  So the right answer is to just get rid of this screen.
