Fedora Merge Review: pango http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/pango/ Initial Owner: besfahbo@redhat.com
BLOCKER: MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual license. The license is actually more complicated than the LGPL that the spec file currently says. See bug 224135.
So, "LGPL plus/minus exception"?
(In reply to comment #2) > So, "LGPL plus/minus exception"? "LGPL with additional restrictions", I think. The additional restrictions would be whatever FTL/GPL would impose.
Bad news! <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Legal> says that the license must be in one of the three lists. Since FTL is nowhere on those lists, unless FSF reviews it or OSI approves it, we may need to consider pango and freetype GPL.
We're kinda out of it: 2 of 3 FreeType developers have agreed to changing the GPL+FTL to LGPL+FTL for HarfBuzz.
This has happened by the way. We've gone with the Old MIT license which doesn't have any advertising requirement.
The license and the license field have long been fixed. Closing.
package has not been reviewed and approved. you cant close it until review is complete.

After repetitive pings on bz, looking into discussion happened in yesterday's FESCo meeting where X/Desktop team members almost shown un-willingness to fix this review, I am pushing back this to NEW queue.
not sure what you are talking about. the changes in your patch certainly don't look like they are worth loosing more than 5 minutes about. Feel free to commit it.
