Description Mikolaj Izdebski 2012-11-13 13:35:19 UTC
License tag is "BSD and LGPLv2"

Problem 1. There is no LGPLv2 code from what I saw (there used to be LGPLv2+ ant task, but it was removed).

Problem 2. Upstream license is MIT, not BSD:
http://www2.cs.tum.edu/projects/cup/

Problem 3. License terms are violated because no license text is included with the package. License says "Permission [...] is hereby granted, provided that the above copyright notice appear in all copies"
