Blocking FE-Legal, This is license problem.
Additonal non-free files: I tried: "find . -type f |xargs egrep -i "copyright" |less" (current directory is scilab source root directory) and cat ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS File: scilab-5.4.0/modules/gui/src/java/org/scilab/modules/gui/bridge/filechooser/FileMask.java Its non-free. (See jai-imageio-core bug 858890) design use restriction. scilab-5.4.0/libs/libst/misc.c This license is "freely redistributable", but do not allow modify.

Sorry about the lag. Many thanks for the feedback, it is always interesting! 1) mt.c issue. The mt.c should be replaced by the one describe here: http://forge.scilab.org/index.php/p/distfun/issues/1057/ 2) fsultra issue I think this algorithm should be removed (anyway, the feature itself should be refreshed in term of new algorithm). 3) X11, LGPL, BSD License and Apple license (See scilab-5.4.0/modules/gui/license.txt) is CeCILL comaptible ? => yes, they are 4) modules/gui/src/java/org/scilab/modules/gui/bridge/filechooser/FileMask.java I think you are wrong here. The part used in the code is not the same as in bug 858890 and there is not this restriction 5) libs/libst/* The code has been rewritten and the new version of the code has been integrated in Scilab 5.4.1: http://cgit.scilab.org/cgit.cgi/scilab/commit/?h=5.4&id=879e8f383ea90da1564128dbd86d81ef17441985 6) about the rpoly, I will need to have a look on this. PS: As a disclaimer, I am part of upstream (it is obvious with my email address ;)
If used rpoly, I suggests that replace rpoly or contact rpoly author. Its non-free. (commercial use restriction) If unused rpoly, I suggests that removing rpoly. Thanks.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle. Changing version to '26'.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 26 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 26. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '26'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 26 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 26 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-05-29. Fedora 26 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
