Hello. kate included non-free files. Please see GNU Savannah bug number "39677" datails. I think that this package be affected by GNU Savannah bug number "39677". Suggests: 1. Remove non-free files and rebuild. 2. Replace fedora free (fedora acceptable licensed) files. 3. Remove fedora repos. Thanks. Reference: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?39677
Blocking FE-Legal, This is license problem.

I don't think that even clears the threshold of originality. Do what ever you want with it. Regards Andreas Klauer --------------------------------- The file kate/syntax/data/lpc.xml says that it's license is "Artistic". It's from 2004, so it's safe to assume that this means the (non-free) Artistic License 1.0. There are also some syntax files which don't have their license field filled. I asked in #kate on Freenode. Someone called igli replied that it means that they fall under Kate's license (LGPL2), so that should be ok. ---------------------------------
Changed to rawhide. How it this bug current status ? Is this bug is resolved ? Thanks.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle. Changing version to '22'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora22
The original author's comment is good enough for me. He argues the contribution isn't copyright'able, and even if it is, "Do what ever you want with it." can mean, relicense it to comply with kde licensing policy.
