Description Mikolaj Izdebski 2012-12-18 16:00:17 UTC
Description of problem:
Description of junit says the package is licensed under IBM Public License, which is in contradiction to the License tag. The license tag and package description should match. Additionally the description mentions that JUnit is hosted on SourceForge, but the source was taken from Github.

I think the description should be cleaned up and references to IBM Public License and SourceForge removed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0:4.10

Additional info:
See packaging guidelines [1] and licensing guidelines [2].
