Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2014-12-10 18:38:10 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 3 David Shea 2014-12-10 19:06:35 UTC
The upstream source already contains COPYING and boilerplate comments specifying that it can be distributed via the LGPL version 2.1 or newer, so I think all that needs to be done is change the string in the spec file.
