Blocking FE-Legal.

Package, sorry.

Note that the current mpich package (version 3) is called "mpich" in Fedora.

Richard, you're going to have to be a bit more specific here. In reviewing the source tree, I see that most of the code is under a simple MIT-like permissive license. There is one bundled perl module which is under the Perl (GPL+ or Artistic) license, and the src/armci/* code is BSD.

src/include/mpiu_utarray.h is from "uthash", and is BSD.

src/pm/hydra/tools/topo/hwloc/hwloc is BSD

In fact, the only areas of possible concern I could identify were:

1. the use of the non-free Sun images in src/mpe2/src/slog2sdk/src/images, under this old Sun license:

graphics or as a collection, as part of software code or programs that you develop, provided that i) this copyright notice and license

These end up in jumpshot.jar and logconvertor.jar.

Resolution: images have been replaced with files from the Public Domain tango-icon-theme and a CC-BY-SA 3.0 "hands cursor" theme.

2. The source files under ./src/mpid/pamid contain an odd header notice:

/* begin_generated_IBM_copyright_prolog                             */
/*                                                                  */

/*  --------------------------------------------------------------- */
/*                                                                  */

/*  (C)Copyright IBM Corp.  2007, 2011  */

Since I don't know what the GSA ADP Schedule Contract with IBM Corp looks like for this code, I can't be sure whether this is use/duplicated/disclosure restricted. 99% of this code claims to be MIT though, and since this is IBM legal boilerplate, I'm inclined to say it does not affect the license on this code.

I've fixed #1 in rawhide and I do not believe #2 is a concern. I've corrected the license tag to be "MIT and BSD and CC-BY-3.0 and Public Domain" If there are additional issues, please put them here, otherwise, I will consider this issue resolved.

Also, mpich2 seems to be blocked in rawhide, it did not branch for f20. I'm wondering if this package is EOL and just never got properly finished...

It has been replaced by "mpich".

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle.
Changing version to '22'.

Files mentioned in comment #4 are not present in current sources. I looked various files over and I didn't find anything problematic.
