Description Kevin Kofler 2006-04-30 03:11:49 UTC 
Description of problem:
The GSView license doesn't allow commercial distribution, making it a non-Free 
license. The package should be pulled from Extras according to the licensing 
guidelines. (It can probably go into that other repository...) This hasn't 
happened yet.

Additional info:
See http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-extras-list/2006-April/msg00293.html
Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2006-04-30 17:22:30 UTC 
Agreed.  Thanks for the poke.
Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2006-04-30 18:10:30 UTC 
gsview has been imported to that "other" repo, and is now awaiting PUBLISH.  As
soon as that is confirmed, I'll get the ball rolling for removal from Extras.
