Description Eike Hein 2007-03-07 23:24:59 UTC

The Portage tree lists the license for kde-base/kolourpaint as GPL-2, which is incorrect. It's actually BSD, as seen in its COPYING[1] and the headers of the individual source files[2].

1 = http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/3.5/kdegraphics/kolourpaint/COPYING?revision=515595&view=markup
2 = http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/3.5/kdegraphics/kolourpaint/

Reproducible: Always
